Desire

Rambling down the veiled street
Blankets of neon light
Fuzzily into the darkness creep
Warming the frozen night

Each approaching door
A world unto its own
With one shared core
Of never being alone

Loud pulsating music laden with alcohol
Four conversations in my mind
Fighting for my time
While I stare at posters littering the wall

Everyone so desperate
Scared of being alone
Screaming "want me" with each breath
While all I want is to be alone

I believe in fate
From the bottom of my heart
So, darling just keep your bait
Tonight I'll have no part

I'll know the time is right
When I'm holding her in my sight
Speaking love with our eyes
Lost in the glow underneath those lights

When the only hurt I can know is to desire her more
