The Purge - Carried Away Lyrics

I thought of you for months with no intent to stop
And taught myself old songs I might never play for you
I don't want to forget this flash of what you are
And what you mean to me now when I have everything to lose

Your face felt like a kiss those times I was alone
I sang to you more than you might ever know
I made a mistake - I made a fraction known
And the whole thing inside me screwed and twisted and burned

I got carried away

I just want to scream how much that I adore you
I swallow it whole and I choke on the thought
In brief and passing moments - Your hand against mine lightly
Where you begin, I feel the end of me

I got carried away

I push against the shame - I feel too much to lie
My whole life I've tried to diminish and deny
But I can love you from a distance if that's what I'm meant to do
I don't know if it will last, but it feels like pain that I'm supposed to

I got carried away

I got carried away
