lyrics

Could you fathom the depth of my love
The ebb and flow, the softest glow
That palpitates in veins
Would you dare to make a trade
The priceless warmth, passing the torch
Brings substance to your name

A precious spice, a shameless vice
Were you stung when it dropped on your tongue?
Transact advice, play it nice
A song to be sung, like the air in your lungs

Don't stir the pot so you get what you want
Everything in this life is a transaction, or a fight
Don't speak too loud, don't be too proud
The best you can do is a transaction to pay your dues

Could you fathom that none of my love
Is currency or pageantry
But, a gift that is earned
Would you dare to play your ace
And give me your truth, ugly and raw
Corrupted, yet chaste

A half a kiss that you nearly missed
Were you stung when it landed on your tongue?
Transact your love for a push or a shove
Now you fit like a glove, but no air in your lungs

Everything in this life is a transaction, or a fight
Don't speak too loud, don't be too proud
The best you can do is a transaction to pay your dues
