lyrics

ELISE

Well this may seem absurd
I’m trying so hard to be heard
But you can’t hear my please
You burn my dear
So out of reach

CHORUS

Burn, you’ll always burn
I’ll never learn
To wait in line, my dear, you see
You’re my release
Elise

Some days you look pretty
The next day you’re a handsome priest
I worship at your feet
Or is this just a sex release?

CHORUS

Learn, I’ll never learn
To wait my turn
For true love to call me, you see
Darkness relieves,
Elise

BRIDGE

It’s just a moment in time
To cradle all the unspoken
And then I’ll find a way
To make you come my way
I know it’s a mortal sin
To move into a heart that’s taken
So I won’t try
I’ll take my time
And wait for you to come out broken.

Ooooh…

A sadist I must be
To chase things I know cannot be
So get away from me
But I tied myself to your leash

Elise.
Elise.
Elise.
