Infatuation

Sometimes your emotions run crazy when you're in love and you can't see a way in or out. That's infatuation.

INFATUATION

I haven’t felt the cold this much

I’m frozen to the spot by your icy touch

Did forever turned to never yesterday?

Your silence seems so treacherous

Just like the empty distance between us

But I don’t wanna see you anyway

It’s like pouring ink upon a spreading stain

And reality beats satire again

CHORUS

There’s no need to explain

Your actions said it all

Now you’ve cut through the vein

For your final curtain call

And we’ve gone past the point of saturation

To infatuation

I’ve never been so close before

To calling it a day from the thirteenth floor

But I haven’t got it in me or so it seems

It’s like pouring salt upon an open wound

This didn’t really go as I’d assumed

CHORUS

Was it my imagination

Confusing like for adulation

But you encouraged me

To live this fantasy

Haunted by my fascination

My memories no consolation

For the vacancy

When you deserted me

It’s like pouring ink upon a spreading stain

And reality beats satire again

CHORUS
