Lyrics
In you, I see a sort of madness that I know
In you, I see the same desire to succumb and to lose control
I think I'm dancing on a knife's edge
And now you've seen me almost fall
But will you revel in the danger and risk it all?
Now I finally see the man who lives beneath the steel
How could I have ever seen a weakness in what you have made me feel?
I think I'm dancing on a knife's edge
And now you've seen me almost fall
But will you revel in the danger and risk it all?
You're tearing off your armor and peeling back your skin
Dismantling the artifice to show me what's within
Since you've let me see you, now you're owed your due
I'll strip off all my pretense and yield my truths to you
You, if you're the ocean you're as vast as you are deep
Will you try to drink up every blissful, salty tear that you've made me weep?
Tonight you're casting off your shield, Love
It won't be long before you bleed
And if I'm called on I will try to be what you need
You're tearing off your armor and peeling back your skin
Dismantling the artifice to show me what's within
Since you've let me see you, now you're owed your due
I'll strip off all my pretense and yield my truths to you
I'm throwing down The Gauntlet and when you take it up
You'll give me everything I ask, but will it be enough?
Will it be enough?
Will it be enough?
Will you take up The Gauntlet, my love?
When you've given me everything that I've asked for
And so much more
Will it be enough?
