lyrics

I am not the man you need
I am the ruler of the heart
There is no card in the deck for me
but the decks always been flawed

I will provide the rule of measure
for the honorable fools
You will close your eyes when pleasured
and see the provider of the rule

I am not the man you need
I am an avalanche in wait
When I fall you cannot see
if you could you would not be safe

I will provide the heart needed
to venture up my walls
You will climb and be defeated
when I send you down to fall

I am not the man you need
I'll manipulate your love
I have no intentions to be
I will always sail above

I have the wind to my back
and a heart like a tomb
My sails gain no slack
gaining distance from you

I am not the man you need
but I will show you a great man
I will leave you in reverie
sentimental with high demands

I will provide the need to forget
one day you will see
that the further we get
is where we should be
