O'Brother - Perilous Love lyrics

Take what you want Leave me broken, leave me estranged Just tear me apart Still my devotion remains the same I bit my tongue For fear of igniting something I can't tame A perilous love Will be my undoing, nothing will remain What you want from me Is my everything What you want is a perfect endeavor What I want can't escape from me now What you want from me Is my everything What you want is subconsciously clever All I want are deliberate lies I try to escape from my mind But I've been tied with subliminal lines I try, try to retain what is mine And I just lie just to keep us alive Set me aside With brazen integrity I can't obtain Leave my insides Tangled in knots that I can't rearrange I bit my tongue For fear of igniting something I can't tame A perilous love Will be my undoing, nothing will remain No time left to devote Madness follows a slippery slippery slope I try to escape from my mind But I've been tied with subliminal lines I try, try to retain what is mine And I just lie just to keep us alive
