Fire and Whispers - IAMX

Do you wanna be the animal to take me apart

Break my patience, corrupt my sacred art?

Do you promise to be with me if I beg and I crawl

In my darkest mood, through the private wars?

Will you stay… even when the drugs have gone?

For it won’t be long before I tumble

Turning into the anxious clown

That just just won’t come down

In fire, in whispers

I would die for a million years

I promise to be your rock star

But then promises don’t mean anything anymore

In the summer of 2005 was the correcting

Of excuses of our need to win

To ourselves we lied we could be the new beginning

Digging up treasures, taking the time to love

And to live and to sin and you stayed…

Even when the drugs were gone

So I sing this song

To you on our island

Of never-ending poetry

It’s just just you and me

In fire, in whispers

I would die for a million years

I promise to be your rock star

But then rock stars don’t mean anything anymore
