Iris
Kim Dracula Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And I′d give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I′ll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breath is your life
And sooner or later it's over
I just don′t want to miss you tonight

But I don′t want the world to save me
Because I don't think that they′d understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can′t fight the tears that ain't coming
All the moment of truth in your lies
When evеrything feel like the movies
Yеah, you bleed just to know you′re alive

But I don't want the world to save me
Because I don't think that they′d understand




When everything′s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
