lyrics

You're a light appearing in the darkness.
Hold on to something I don't want to lose.
The way you disarmed me - it isn't alarming.
It's something I'd happily choose.
I am taken by the seamless vision.
This compulsion, I can't escape.
Slowly drifting forward. This elegant torture
is only as good as the pain.

And the outcome is always the same.
So I dance with the open flame.
I'll keep coming back to you - just like I always do.

Such a cold and cruel manipulation.
But I'm compelled to stay all the same.
It's a defening silence - a motionless violence
And somehow I can't turn away.
They say repetition is madness
But I'm always stuck in a loop.
The clockwork inside me just isn't worth fighting
and there's nothing left I can do.
