Volcano lyrics
Don't hold yourself like that
You'll hurt your knees
I kissed your mouth and back
But that's all I need
Don't build your world around volcanoes melt you down
What I am to you is not real
What I am to you you do not need
What I am to you is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask for the sea
Don't throw yourself like that
In front of me
I kissed your mouth your back
Is that all you need?
Don't drag my love around volcanoes melt me down
What I am to you is not real
What I am to you you do not need
What I am to you is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask for what I give to you
Is just what I'm going through
This is nothing new
No no just another phase of finding what I really need
Is what makes me bleed
And like a new disease Lord, she's still too young to treat
Volcanoes melt me down
She's still too young
I kissed your mouth
You do not need me

This is about a girl begging to stay with a man that was using her just for sex. He tries to explain to her that she shouldn't even want him because he wouldn't treat her well and she's too young for him. She could give him everything she had but it wouldn't be what he wanted. He is the volcano, and he will end up ruining the girl. The girl is telling him that if he feels that way then to stay away from her because she can't resist the temptation. He in turn can't resist her. "What I really need is what makes me bleed" She is what he needs, but is too young therefore he knows it wouldn't work.Rating:
