Is it as easy as that?
A momentary contact
Of eyes 'cross the room
Incendiary contract
Signed in the gloom
Shaking from the impact
You're not coming back
No you're not coming back from this
Is it as simple as this?
A fleeting little kiss
Stolen at first
Then returned with interest
Weak to the thirst
Becoming an accomplice
You're not coming back
No you're not coming back from this...
Time you've crossed the point of no return
You can't turn back the bridge is
Burning in your face, into your skin
An ugly scar displays your sins
She can't take anymore
She's heading for the door
Try to pursue
But you're glued to the floor
Payed what you're due
I think you knew the score
But it hurts when it hits
No you're not coming back from this...
Time you've crossed the point of no return
You can't turn back the bridge is
Burning in your face, into your skin
An ugly scar displays
Your sins
Once, so long ago, she called me king
Now I'm not anything
And so the life that I saw for myself
Gathers dust on the shelf
Late at night, wrapped up in feeling
Pictures dance on ceiling
I try to chase them with a broken wing
Once, she called me king
