Fear/+/Desire Songtext
von Mannequin Pussy

You beg me to build you a monument
And as it grew, oh, so did all my regret

Is this what you wanted?
Holding me down make you feel desire?
Leave my body ′til I can return
I'll unlearn
All I give to you is meant to burn
Burn


When you hit me, it does not feel like a kiss
Like the singers promised a lie that was written for them
And you′re touching me, my skin it turns to mold
And I'm crying out, a story never told
I was hiding out

Is this what you wanted?
Holding me down makes you feel desired
Leave my body 'til I can return
I′ll unlearn
All I give to you is meant to burn
Burn

I was climbing into bed and pretended to sleep
Your hands wrap around me and I silently weep
And possession is a demon that I never meant to keep
To keep

You beg me to build you a monument
And as it grew, oh, so did all my regret
