Desire
Nanami Ozone Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I used to be a liar, a fighter
The things that make you filled with desire
I used to be a part of the action
I used to want to feel attraction
I wanna feel like a minor
I wanna, wanna feel like a minor

I want, I want, I want, I want, I want, I want

Desire
Desire

It's too easy doing the same thing
It's easy waking up to do the same thing
How could this story get so bleak
I guess I wrote it on a receipt
I wanna feel like I used to
I wanna feel like I used to be used to

I want, I want, I want, I want, I want, I want

Desire
Desire
