It's On You

I should have known that you
Would let go of everything, everything
I shouldn’t have given you
More than what I expected in return, but
It’s on you
You should,
Should’ve done better
It’s on you
Always, always
We could have worked it out
If you had just made a change
To yourself
Love is about the ways
You’re working to see it through
Every day
I tried to be flexible
But you think I’m just naive, so
It’s on you
You should,
Should’ve done better
It’s on you
Always, always

Expectation is filling my mind up
Inside out
I’m leaving my home
In vague pursuit of what I don’t know
I seek to find
A path through the fire
What I need is what will destroy me
Love becomes the only salvation
From all the lies the lovers told me
You become the thing you despise
So confused by how much it hurts you
Truth comes to me when I am on my own
But I don’t wanna be alone at all
So I see it through
And lean into compassion
Knowing what can happen
Knowing what will happen
Love becomes the only salvation
From all the lies the lovers told me
You become the thing you despised
Your soul confused by how much it hurts you
It’s disappointment dressed as seduction
It takes from me with ugly intention
And no good reason
(outro)
Truth holds you
And heals you
You’ll fight or
You’ll fall through
But I don’t wanna be alone at all, no.

Hey you
Won’t you come with me?
To our place
What we know
All our own.
I know you
And what you need.
Let’s make love.
Oh, we are alright
I can see the answers
Feel the daylight
Let’s leave it all behind
I know
There are things you
Just can’t say.
We both know they won’t go away, oh
Just be with me
Ahhhhh
‘Cause I know you
And what you need
Let’s make love
Oh, we are alright
I can see the answers
Feel the daylight
Let’s leave it all behind
Are you dreaming?
You might never know..
Oh, we’re alright
Let’s leave it all behind.

You’re my
Secret Passion
But I hide
From these feelings
You are my
Secret Passion
Yes, it’s true
You don’t know
What I feel for you.
You’re my
Secret Passion
No lie
I wanna be the one you know you can’t deny
I wish above it all
To be in your view
I want to be close to you
Your love
Gives me something
That, I know
I’ll never let it go
Close to you

I wanna see who you are
Let me tease it out
I'll peel you like the fruit of desire
A Venus and her Mars
Most girls, they know the high
Of skipping a few meals at a time
But I want a belly full of strife
And to know who you are
We can watch the world falling apart
But I won't judge you now
We'll light a candle for the wicked and the creul
So they will bless our love
Lift me up
Tell me the things you want
I'll take you as you are
As you are

Oh
Give me what I crave
Boys, brave
Curious to taste their shame
Tongues like snakes that move in two ways
From here to there
He
Gave me hungry eyes
It goes
Over in my mind again
Guilty joy resides in me now
There’s no way out
