Barricade

The surge of emotion breaks through
And exposes and opens my reticence
Defences are broken, I'm undone
I'm slave to the motion, I've burned for so long
The seed of desire, transforming sin
Through screams of denial, so deafening
Close to the fire, this cool bark
It blows and defiles, she's turning me on
I've seen the lightning, now I'm waiting for the thunder
Forever imprisoned by the spell she has me under
Burn this city to the ground, sweet baby
Take this giant leap of faith
Crush these cynics that surround me, baby
Reach out, don't speak, tear down this barricade
I can't look away now, there's too much pull
A storm from an ocean turns can to cork
It's lust and desire, a pure drug
She feeds my emotions, I can't get enough
I'm climbing a mountain, the highest yet
I'm walking a wire, no safety net
She knows that I want her, I'm so lost
I've just got to have her to hell with the cost
I've seen the lightning, now I'm waiting for the thunder
Forever imprisoned by the spell she has me under
Burn this city to the ground, sweet baby
Take this giant leap of faith
Crush these cynics that surround me, baby
Reach out, don't speak, tear down this barricade
Burn this city to the ground, sweet baby
Take this giant leap of faith
Crush these cynics that surround me, baby
Reach out, don't speak, tear down this barricade
You've got to tear it down, down, down
Tear down the barricade
Burn this city to the ground, sweet baby
You've got to burn it down now
Take this giant leap of faith
Tear down this giant leap of faith
Crush these cynics that surround me, baby
That surround me, baby
Reach out, don't speak, tear down this barricade
You've got to burn it down now
Oh, tear down the barricade
Oh, you've got to tear, tear, tear, tear down the barricade
