Price of Desire
Verse 1:
In the dim light of the evening, where shadows fall,
The price is set, and I hear the call,
Money on the table, whispers in the dark,
Trading moments for a fleeting spark.
Pre-Chorus:
Promises are made, but the cost is steep,
In the realm of desire, where hearts can't sleep,
A touch for a dollar, a kiss for a price,
In this world where the love is cold as ice.
Chorus:
What's the price of desire, when the heart's been sold?
A passion that's bought and a warmth that's cold,
Trading intimacy for the weight of gold,
In a game where the soul's left out in the cold.
Verse 2:
In the silence of the night, where dreams collide,
The currency of longing is what we hide,
Each touch a transaction, each glance a fee,
In this dance of desire, what's left for me?
Pre-Chorus:
Hearts are breaking, but the money's in hand,
In a world where the value's hard to understand,
For every touch, there's a price to pay,
In the exchange where the love fades away.
Chorus:
What's the price of desire, when the heart's been sold?
A passion that's bought and a warmth that's cold,
Trading intimacy for the weight of gold,
In a game where the soul's left out in the cold.
Bridge:
The illusion of warmth in a sea of greed,
Each kiss a reminder of a desperate need,
The cost of affection is more than it seems,
In this world where we barter for dreams.
Chorus:
What's the price of desire, when the heart's been sold?
A passion that's bought and a warmth that's cold,
Trading intimacy for the weight of gold,
In a game where the soul's left out in the cold.
Outro:
In the end, what's gained when the deal is done?
A heart that's been shattered, a soul that's run,
The price of desire is a heavy toll,
In a world where we trade pieces of our soul.
