We Are Alchemists Lyrics by Darren Hayes
Do what you want with me
You know I can’t refuse
Replace the scars in me
With your emotional tattoos
I was never consciously looking for love
The universe conspired in the absence of
Maybe I’m an alchemist and you are a dove
Taking all the hurt and turning pain into love
I never meant to seek you out
I never meant call you forth
But in my mind I was searching yeah
Behind enemy lines
Behind a curtain yeah
We can dance if you want to
We can try to forget
We can touch if you need to
It might help with regret
And we can kiss if you want to
Turn our sadness to sex
We can dance if you want to
We are alchemists
Do what you want with me
In the silence I’ll let go
Be who you want with me
I’ll make a house with a damaged home
Stumbling around in a chamber of light
A thousand tiny mirrors and a laser messiah
Desire’s all around but it’s open secret
Rolling in the ground you know we both reek of it
I never meant to give you up
(Feel alone, I feel alone, I feel alone, I’m just a lonely pilgrim)
I never meant to watch you fall
(All Alone, Oh I’m so alone, Just a bunch of bones, I’m just a lonely pilgrim)
And In my mind I went searching
(I wasn’t consciously looking for love I was searching for myself)
Behind enemy lines
(Behind the curtain)
And we can dance if you want to
(If you want to)
We can try to forget
We can touch if you need to
(If you need to)
It might help with regret
(When everything’s over)
And we can kiss if you want to
(If you want to)
Turn our sadness to sex
(When everything’s over would you)
We can dance if you want to
(If you want to)
We are alchemists
Hoo Hoo Whoa
I feel alone
Oh I feel alone
A bunch of broken bones
Put me back together baby
With alchemy
One part you
One me
We’re making gold from gold
It’s deep magic baby
We can dance if you want to
(If you want to)
We can try to forget
(When everything’s over would you)
We can touch if you need to
(If you need to)
It might help with regret
(When everything’s over would you)
We can kiss if you want to
(If you want to)
Turn our sadness to sex
(When everything’s over would you)
We can dance if you want to
(If you want to)
We are alchemists
When everything’s over would you dance for us?
When everything’s over would you dance for us?
When everything’s over would you dance for us?
When everything’s over would you dance for us?
When everything’s over
