lyrics

Dry Wood

You were suddenly standing there
such a handsome sharkeyed stare
dark magic and sweet lies
I could never read your eyes
I could go allover the world
trie to touch you without getting burned
you can taste it in the air
the fireskies are coming near

You´re like dry wood
I pour on water
Hoping you will soak
And it´s clear that soon you´ll
go up in smoke

You´re like dry wood
I pour on water
Hoping you will see
I could have you like no other
Please you like a lover
But when the sun goes down on you
You´re gone for good

I woke up like I slept in hell
Dry mouth and no tales to tell
Worked so hard to break your curse
All I did was make it worse
And we could go allover the world
Trie to run but it wont help
Can you taste it in the air
The fireskies are everywhere
You´re like dry wood
