you weren't mine to lose
you stirred something wrong in me
my hair is frizzy, sweat drips from my brow
but I don't dare move an inch,
no, I don't dare utter a word
you weren't mine to lose
through starlight and echoes, I found you
my stardust scattered this cold August morning
can you taste my defeat?
what if it's all been for you,
and you're the reason I lost?
you weren't mine to lose
you stirred something wrong in me
my hair is frizzy, sweat drips from my brow
but I don't dare move an inch,
no, I don't dare utter a word
sweet satisfaction, take over me
drag me to places I've never seen
take me deep down below, where the monsters' bellies are
take control of my flesh and bone
please, remember who you are
I would go to any length
but not for you?
I would give up all my strength
but not for you?
and yet, I would take on all your battles
if you asked me to
'cause I know that I would survive
I guess, unlike you
you weren't mine to lose
through starlight and echoes, I found you
ticking time away, dripping, sparkling stardust
can your heart still beat?
what if it was for me,
I'm the reason you've been lost?
you weren't mine to lose,
you stirred something wrong in me
my hair is frizzy, sweat drips from my brow
but I don't dare utter a word,
no, I don't dare move a muscle
