They may call you immoral
But tonight I'll call you mine
I might phone you tomorrow
From your sheets at half past nine
My heads been loose at its hinges
Throw a match and watch me burn
I held you sworn to a witness
Hold me back but let me burn
Hold me back but let me burn
The stars said you overthink it
Left me kissless at the rye
I'll be the first to admit it
Not the first or last goodbye
I make my way to your bedroom
Unsurprised by my return
You're bolder than I remembered
Hold me back but let me burn
Hold me back but let me burn
Hold me back but let me burn
Hold me back but let me burn
Bruised and bloody but faithful
Gave yourself for no return
I tremble, terrified, grateful
Scared to bleed but born to yearn
I've got eternal impatience
Wait in line till it's my turn
This pleasure's long been displaced
So hold me back but let me burn
Hold me back but let me burn
Hold me back but let me burn
Hold me back but let me burn
You kiss me slower than time works
Lost my breath with no concerns
I still don't get how your mind works
Hold me back but let me burn
