Love, welcome to the real world,
Come in to the daydream store,
Buy yourself a brand new goal
Then pack your stuff and prepare to go
Love, I'll burn you 'til you're dust and coal,
I'll crush you to your diamond form,
I'll take you where the lights are low,
Cause that's the only place where you will glow
Now I'm waiting for an answer
I’m waiting for the sun to shine
Show me a reaction
Show me what you have in mind
And I'll make it flow
When you're burning away
And you can't hold your breath
(Well, that's all you got
and that's all you'll get)
One day this empty room
Will be full of shame
(All by yourself)
And you won't get any chances
You won't get any time
You'll only be another ghost
But deep inside your bones
I know there's something more
So just let it flow

You always wanted more,
You always needed fire,
But if you asked me to,
I'd give what you desire
When you're burning away
And you can't hold your breath
(Well, that's all you got
and that's all you'll get)
One day this empty room
