Always Persuaded

Tell myself  to move on
No reason, just walk away
But every time I take a step,
Your eyes tell me to stay.
 
I'm yours in a breath,
Short, hitched, and baited
Can't fight it now
'Cause I'm always persuaded.
 
Caught up in the heat,
Caught up in the rush,
Caught up in the thought
Of knowing your touch.
 
So I take  the fall,
Lean in to your kiss
Try to convince myself its meaningless.
 
One more time you pull me close
One more time I'm giving in
One more time I tell myself
One last time...
 
I know this isn't right
But my heart still skips a beat
You're my bane, end witching stone
A moment's reel, my rest in peace.
 
Relying on your breath
Hunger not sated
Can't quit you now
And I'm always persuaded.
 
Caught up in the heat
Caught up in the rush
Caught up in the though
Of knowing your touch.
 
So I take the fall.
Lean in to your kiss
Try to convince myself its meaningless.
 
One more time you pull me close
One more time I'mm giving in
One more time I tell myself
One last time...
