Lust For You
Hospital Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My hands are tied
And i don′t know what to do
Because i lust for you
There is no point in my life
And i'm sure it′s true
When i lust for you
Yes i lust for you
I can't leave things well enough alone
And i don't care if i′m right or wrong
Like a little boy still psyched out
I need a shot in the arm

Your saving grace just set me back on my heels
And you make me real
I can′t describe my feelings
But it's something new
All my lust for you
Because i lust for you

I can′t leave things well enough alone
And i don't care if i′m right or wrong




Like a little boy still psyched out
I need a shot in the arm
