This Feeling
This is the hardest part
Seeing that yearning in your eyes
Now that it’s time to depart
Last night, we let Lust led us
All over town, we put it
in overdrive, Jonesing
for each other, breaking it
off in dark alleyways,
down stairways
We couldn’t control that dizzying feeling of ecstasy
leaving our ass out in the street, for the world to see
We prove the moves; we’re all fools when Lust rules
in the right of ways.
Lust dragged us into this
Got us slipping around town
Like thieves, stealing passion
That belongs to others,
leaving us weak in the knees
It locked us down, in our cheap cravings
Pilfered our souls, our minds
leaving us spent, lost, passed out
In low-rate motels
It’s got me sick with this
I’m lost with it, I’m so in lust
I can’t feel the ground
It’s taking control of me,
making me crazy, I can’t speak
against my addiction
Lust rules my thinking
Whenever this is over, I’ll still jones for it,
but for now I have to break away,
cause I can’t control the feeling
if I stayed
Last night, you were my shameless desire
With the new light comes the dawn, and clarity
Like a hangover, I can’t escape this shame
Time to ask for forgiveness
Until next time, when Lust call us home,
I’ll try to control this feeling
