Cured Passion Lyrics

Last night I saw the moon for the first time

Last night I saw the moon for the first time

I hate the way I love

I hate the way I break against you

Don't be lonely

Your body is your enemy

We can do it just like we practiced

We can pretend like we like this

Don't be a part of me

Your skin should not touch mine

The violent warmth that coats your body

Leaves such a gentle burn

But I never wanted this to happen

I never asked to take your name

So why should you be forced

To answer for my shame

I never wanted to be different

I just wanted everyone to change

Could you put on a different movie

Could you sit in a different place

Clutch my shoulders like I'm dying

Cure your passion now against mine

I'm so tired of screaming at pillows

Haunt my body, give me what I've earned

Take away my voice, I have no need for words

I'm so tired of trying to get sleep

I do not have a defining moment

That made me who I am

I have a series of mistakes

And a pair of shaking hands

And I never learned to love them

I never wiped away the sweat

Last time this made me cry

Last time I checked

I've only ever felt like I'm alive when I was drowning

It's too easy to breathe when I'm sleeping next to someone

I've dreamt of finding someone who would hate me when I found them

And I don't want to sleep next to someone who's not like you

I've only ever felt like I'm alive when I was drowning

I spent half the year forgetting how to breathe

I've dreamt of finding someone who wouldn't ask for arms around them

And I hate myself for thinking I can dream

Clutch my shoulders like I'm dying

Cure your passion now against mine

I'm so tired of screaming at pillows

Haunt my body, give me what I've earned

Take away my voice, I have no need for words

I'm so tired of trying to get sleep

I never liked you

I didn't think of you all that much

I never liked you

I liked the thought that I could love

I never liked you

Circe, hold me in your arms

I never liked you

I'm so scared of staying human

I never liked you

But I cried when I dreamed that I left

I never liked you

I took no comfort in my flesh

I never liked you

But I was never really allowed

I never liked you

What a stupid thing to lie about
