lyrics

CHOSEN ONES

Remember the time
When we were apart
Nothing around but the sound of half of our hearts
We are
The chosen ones
We’re virgins
From the start of the silver moon up above
We’re gravity bound but we float on an image of love
Because
The chosen ones will never get enough

Was it your car or was it your clothes
Maybe that beautiful diamond pierced through your nose
Suppose
The chosen ones aren’t really meant to
Know about darkness whose blanket we trust
It kisses our lips that eclipse all the sweet sighs of lust
We must
Be chosen ones
We’re made of love and dust

Remember all of the pretty words that you said
In my bed
We are chosen ones
Don’t need to look ahead

Was I just sleeping or am I still dead
Where are your clothes and the dirty books that you read
You said
The chosen ones don’t ever have regrets about love
Or the sorrow it leaves
Were you in love or just
Somewhere stuck in between
Believe
The chosen ones are still the last to see

You’re such a soul shaker

The magic is gone
But when did it end
Was I a fool just stuck in a world of pretend
My friend
Seems the ones that do the choosing are the men

Remember all of the pretty words that you said
In my bed
We are chosen ones
Don’t need to look ahead

You know I promised I’d love you til the end
And you said
We are chosen ones
Invincible
