What makes a man do the things that a man does to be

the very thing he perceives would capture your heart?

What makes a woman believe in a man such as me?
Unworthy to sit at your foot or your crown
I can only let you down
What does it feel like inside?

And some men spend their lives

Chasing the accolades of pride

But that just never crossed my mind,

You were always on my mind

Or does it keep you alive, and set you on fire, on fire?
I would give anything for the touch of your skin
Yes, I would burn here for years
Up in desire, desire
