i'd been carving you
to see what form you'd take
you were hiding in ivory
i just wanted to free your shape

bringing me down
it's too quiet to breathe
who wants to hear their heart
beat

it's gotta be here
in your spiderweb alphabets
did i read it all wrong
have i just not gotten it yet

you got what you want
you wanted release
can you be appeased
can you bring it all back to me
bring it all back to me

bringing me down
the obvious turns out to be true
and all that i couldn't see
how it was turning me on

oh i don't want to pare you down
oh i don't want to wear you down
i don't want any more than what's there
oh i don't want to pare you down

well you got what you want
you wanted release
can you be appeased
can you bring it all back to me
oh bring it all back to me

just bring it all back to me
it's all that i want
it's all that i need
oh it's all that i want

just bring it all back to me
bring it
give it
bring it..
