lyrics

Girl, I never greet you,
I'm too proud to feel the need to;
I don't answer to your smiles
because I know how hard you try.
I'm not your friend, I'll never be;
I'll never bind myself, I'm free;
but I respect your wish to exercise
your power over me.

So I'm your enemy and rival,
girl, I'm challenging your fire;
each defeat is a revival
and your weapon my desire.
I am loving your disguise,
have to investigate your eyes
to find the clue you didn't give
to be the one god in your paradise.

The things you give to me, girl,
make my flesh feel like a man,
they make me recognize my origins
and how this life began,
I find my honor in your smile
and I like savoring the while
and gently relishing the sentiment
that I could make you mine.

I'll gladly buckle and I'll cry,
I'll show my feelings, I'll deny,
I'll speak the truth and whisper lies,
I'll be contemptuous and sly;
I'll be as cruel until you're mine
and give my child to you in time
if you convince me that I'll die
without your spirit at my side.

I am too strong to really need you
and too happy to debase you
and I love you way too much to
ever pacify or heed you
too much power to avoid you,
too much courage not to face you;
I'm a man and you are feminine
and that's why I demand all of

The things you give to me that
make my flesh feel like a man,
they make me recognize my origins
and how this life began,
I find my honor in your smile
and I like savoring the while
and gently relishing the sentiment
that I could make you mine.
