"Robbed" lyrics

"Robbed"

Meet me outside, in the dark, where there's nothing but air
Hold me 'til dusk with your lust so I never feel fear
Cover me up with the words that you have prepared
I wanna feel love, just love, 'cause nothing compares
Nothing compares

You know the saying, "Love makes you blind"?
Well, it robbed all my senses
It robbed my whole mind
And I am left with no fire

And more than twice, I've been fooled
And overthinking seemed rude
So you laid down your thoughts
And I helped tie the knots
And I am left with no fire

Lead me astray, carry me, for I wish to be held
Talk to me now, lie about, what it is that you want
Smile in that way, like that game you always made up
Even children, they know there's no way I could be loved
Nor that I am to love

You know the saying, "Love makes you blind"?
Well, it robbed all my senses
It robbed my whole mind
And I am left with no fire

And more than twice, I've been fooled
And overthinking seemed rude
So you laid down your thoughts
And I helped tie the knots
And I am left with no fire

And there'll be an ending point where you might not win
It's not that I don't like you, I just love him
I'll tell myself repeatedly, "It's just because he needed me then"
And moving on seems seldom to be found in corners of my mind

You know the saying, "Love makes you blind"?
Well, it robbed all my senses
It robbed my whole mind
