Desire Video (MV)

Didn't I say to you not too recent
That it was never gonna stay
It was never gonna stay here?

You're like the moon in a basket of weeds
You rose out of the roses
Right under my mouth

A far away cry from this petty little town
Shine back we will notice, though you never owed us

Some passionately painted creatures
Were meant to descend from the bleachers
Without much more than a promise

You got it your gut stinking
I could taste in your paint when you left and when you came

And I could remark upon that old feeling
But that won't make it a remarkable feeling

Didn't I taste it feel it and know
In so many ways
So many ways

The feel of your honey in the corner of my mouth
Like a loop around the block
Like a shadow in your notebook

Oh come on what's based in rhyme doesn't matter
Now we pause the tape for some laughter

I won't accept the conceit any further
I will return it to you in a fervor

My soul cousin told me I was featured in a play
That I was meant to take the stage
I turned to him: OK

And in it we drove all night and you smiled so much
You got creases on your face
The kind that give you grace

And I try to keep cool regardless of what
I know to be true

You got good timing
And you listen blindly
You're a street fighter, no
Prize fighter

Desire, desire
Was never gonna stay

Fictions are
Frightening like
Statues in
Lightning and
I wore
My boot sole
And you gave it
A new whole

Desire, desire
Was never gonna stay
No matter what I say
