I Will Be Your Man

Tonight I will be your man.
Not the friend who comprehends.
I will be so confident.
Yes tonight I'll be your man.
Oh, baby if you let it happen.
For once it won't be so cautious.
Tonight I will be your man.
I will be whoever you want.
I will be provocative.
Yes, tonight I'll be your man.
Oh, baby if you let it happen.
For once it won't be so cautious.
Oh, baby if you let it happen.
For once it won't be so cautious.
Tonight I will be your man.
Tonight I will be your man

One Way Love
04:00

Hungry we have become
for some of that one way love.
A tender hug, a gentle push.
Somehow it all vanished in dust.
We scent the ashes of what never was
and temper our desirous hearts
with misplaced justifying thoughts
the guilt inducted deep in who we are
Are you still able to love?
Are you still able to love us?
It's sad to see how we project
all that we desperately lacked
in each other you know this doesn't fit in
in a romance.
We scent the ashes of what never was
and temper our desirous hearts
with misplaced justifying thoughts
the guilt inducted deep in who we are.
Are you still able to love?
Are you still able to love us?
Are you still able to love?
Are you still able to love us?

Pretence

Can't you see that I slowly
distance myself from you.
I just couldn't keep up with
the pretence.
My eyes have seen too much
I know that nothing can be erased.
In your harsh remarks
shimmer through all of your mistakes.
How come I feel such grief
while you're still here
by moving further away
am I starting to heal?
Or am I making it worse?
Don't you recognize this phase
that we are in.
You must have felt the same sensations
under your skin.
The choices you then made,
might be di erent than mine
I don't know if it will bring
the consolation I have in mind.
How come I feel such grief
while you're still here.
By moving further away
am I starting to heal?
Or am I making it worse?

Bait

It can't be good that our
future weighs this much.
You keep up in the shadow
of our love.
In your eyes we are a bait
we are the ones that you can't shape
we fight but sometimes we feel lost
and out of place.
We don't know how to talk to you
we don't know what we need to say
we try to peel of all your skin
of ours and try not to suffocate.
One man told us that we are
all arrows in a bow
waiting to be launched but
never to return.
To the archer
is this what you still expect us to do?
And are we fools for letting you
think it's true?
We don't know how to talk to you
we don't know what we need to say
we try to peel of all your skin of ours
and try not to suffocate.
We don't know how to talk to you
we don't know what we need to say
we try to peel of all you skin
we don't know how to talk to you
we don't know what we need to say
we try to peel of all your skin
we try to peel of everything.
