Here my child, Rest your head on me, Cos I'm the safest man you'll ever meet, I'll tell you a story, I won't expect you to believe, About a boy who lost his reason to deceive, It's the death of my desire. While I grew up I hid behind a smile, I was never allowed to be an average child, And now the years have forced me to be a man, I find I can't go along with this meaningless sham. It's the death of my desire. I want to find a new way, But I can't make it on my own, I want a partner in crime, So I don't feel so alone. So come to bed, I won't disturb your sleep, Cos I've a secret I'm determined not to keep, I see you understand my point of view, You're safe because there's nothing I need from you. It's the death of my desire.
