Embrace - DNA lyrics

[Verse 1] Maybe I couldn't give you Everything that you want Maybe I should have put your feelings first For once 'Cause I will want what I can't get Till I'm dead in the ground And the light that you hold Goes out [Verse 2] If I send a letter Would you read it alone? Am I still a contender Or have you moved on? 'Cause I've been trapped in my gla** house So long on my own I'm so glad that you threw Your stone You wrote upon it, "You're the one" It said upon it, "You're the one" [Chorus] And the tears you can taste Are not just DNA I watched our luck decay And like a bird I preyed I'm a virus and you're The placebo, not the cure No, no, that strain you can't erase It's in my DNA [Verse 3] Maybe I'm outnumbered Well, I won't be outgunned I rise from the ashes, I won't sink In the mud 'Cause we're not just ones and zeros We're so much more And you've gotta find out Or the credits roll [Chorus] And the tears you can taste Are not just DNA I watched our luck decay And like a bird I preyed I'm a virus and you're The placebo, not the cure Its poison never works It only makes me worse [Chorus] And the tears you can taste Are not just DNA They showed that we're the same And I washed them all away 'Cause I'm a virus and you're Out looking for the cure No, no, that strain you can't erase It's in my DNA That strain you can't erase It's in my DNA
