lyrics

Hey little evil one where do you think you're going,
With all my love in tow?
Am I your chosen one under autumn sun?
Pseudo sacrificial.
I'll never be the man to tell you "no you can't"
or "no you won't" cuz I know you will
So sing out every word
Let your fire burn and effervescent ritual

I'm the only one and even when it's fun,
It's never fun enough for you
Still I long to be the only remedy
To brighten all your darkest moods
You may have my heart to now tear apart,
fill or burst, do whatever you please
Painted the deepest blue to your rosy hue
Maybe that's just what you need.

Cuz I can't wait forever and a day on you.
These things change and you know that you have too
And I would play the sweetest of melodies
If every word I sung was a setting sun
That would lead you back to me

So what am I to do if I'm only used
and there is so much more that I did?
Can't you see that pain?
Or at least what I mean?
It's not a nice kind of misery
Take the memories like a faded dream that haunts
But never meant anything
Don't you say you miss bucause you never did
It's just a silly game you love to play.

You know I'd wait forever and ever on you.
Come what may, my heart will remain true.
And I have played the sweetest of melodies
If every word I sung were the ones you'd want
I'd be your only remedy.
