lyrics

FULL VERSION LYRICS

To have a heart made of stone
To have a body of gold
The flames burn in your eyes
Is that what I want in life?

To have passion and lust
To have anger and hate
you may think it's alright
but both will bring you sorrow

and in the end
is that what you want?
is that what you want?

and in the end
is that what you want? (This is what I want)
is that what you want? (This is what I want)

I think I despise you
but I may secretly love you
I'm really not sure now
and I don't think I'll ever know

you have a heart made of stone
you have a body of gold
You have that fire in your eyes
that's all I need in life

That's all I need in life
That's all I need in life

That's all I need in life
That's all I need in life

(I heard all about the deals you made
I can see through the burning flames
I know the reason why you need me
but that's ok because I need the same)

(I can see through the burning flames
I know all about the deals you made
Scratch my back, and I'll scratch yours
You're gonna love me forever more)

It seems we're both made of stone
we may have bodies of gold
A flame burns in in our eyes
and we have no shame.
