lyrics
I am slipping, sliding, spinning round, falling down
I am scrunching, stretching, shaking, waiting
I am lowering myself to the ground
twisting, turning, writhing, craving
You love me while I am the one you're with
you love me while somebody waits at home
You love me thoroughly and without shame
Then easily leave me all alone
Cause I'm not the inspiration, I'm just a passing desire
I'm not the congregation, I'm just a member of the choir
I'm not the final prize, I'm just a part of the game
and I am not the blazing fire
I'm just a little flame
I was spellbound by your fancy words
I got caught with my libido rising
dived right into the cold wet ocean
instead of making sure the water was inviting
Tell me what she does that I can't do
I'd like to know what makes her so amazing
What do I lack that makes me only good enough to...
And what do I have that brings you here in the first place
Tell me why I'm not the inspiration, I'm just a passing desire
I’m not the congregation, I'm just a member of the choir
I'm not the final prize, I'm just a part of the game
and I am not the blazing fire
I'm just a little flame
Wait, come on now, stop
I know it's not going to be me in the end
Oh no, Cause I'm just a passing desire
A lowly member of the choir
I'm not the final prize, I'm just a part of the game
and I am not the blazing fire
I’m just a little flame
I’m just a little flame
I’m just a little flame
I am scrunching, stretching, shaking, waiting
I am lowering myself to the ground
twisting, turning, writhing, craving
You love me while I am the one you're with
you love me while somebody waits at home
You love me thoroughly and without shame
Then easily leave me all alone
Cause I'm not the inspiration, I'm just a passing desire
I'm not the congregation, I'm just a member of the choir
I'm not the final prize, I'm just a part of the game
and I am not the blazing fire
I'm just a little flame
I was spellbound by your fancy words
I got caught with my libido rising
dived right into the cold wet ocean
instead of making sure the water was inviting
Tell me what she does that I can't do
I'd like to know what makes her so amazing
What do I lack that makes me only good enough to...
And what do I have that brings you here in the first place
Tell me why I'm not the inspiration, I'm just a passing desire
I’m not the congregation, I'm just a member of the choir
I'm not the final prize, I'm just a part of the game
and I am not the blazing fire
I'm just a little flame
Wait, come on now, stop
I know it's not going to be me in the end
Oh no, Cause I'm just a passing desire
A lowly member of the choir
I'm not the final prize, I'm just a part of the game
and I am not the blazing fire
I’m just a little flame
I’m just a little flame
I’m just a little flame
