jess cornelius - desire lyrics

[verse 1]
i don’t know what to do with all of this pain
it fills me up and twice again
and i feel it in my bloodstream, tilting my head to the ground
you gotta keep your head up
if only to see who is holding you down

[chorus]
you said, “desire is stronger when someone is running away”
(when someone’s running away)
oh, but i’m having your child now and i can’t stand to play those children’s games
(i can’t stand to play those games now, baby, what good are they?)
and it hurts that you don’t want me
when you dream of strangers all the time
i always knew that love meant losing
but i never thought i’d straight up lose my mind

[post+chorus]
oh, baby
don’t you know that it’s a crime?
oh, baby
can’t you see that it’s a crime?
that when it comes to loving me lately
you don’t even want to try

[verse 2]
i used to have a kindness in my heart
a friend to myself when things got hard
but i feel a subtle shifting like something inside me has gone
and i never thought i’d be here
pregnant and scared that i can’t turn you on
[chorus]
you said, “desire is stronger when someone is running away”
but i have seen how that goes down
and i can’t have things that way

[post+chorus]
oh, baby
can’t you see that it’s a crime?
oh, baby
don’t you know that it’s a crime?
that i can borrow your love sometimes lately
but it’s never really mine

[outro]
i always knew i was good at something
but it turns out i’m just real good at desire
