One Minute More Lyrics - Set The House On Fire - Moddi

"One step, you're just one step from perfection" 

she held out her hand 

and so life spreads from fingertips and through my veins, a beast is born within a man 

and it whispers of all I've ever hoped for and everything that is wrong 

slowly now all the words add up and somehow they crack and slip from my tongue 

and as if singing a psalm I am down on my knees 

I am singing for love from the top of my lungs 

but the louder I cry the less I believe 

that this moment we're in will be more than just now 

silently I'm replacing what she lacks with the things that I love 

and though I know I might be torn all around the edges behind her perfect shell's a rotting soul 

so incomplete but wholer still if I am able to just let her go 

and if this is the end then at least it was worth it 

'cause I swear it was love or something just so 

and I know love will come to the one who deserves it 

I'll try closing my eyes and give it one minute more 

but I'm not of your kind 

someone as stupid as me should be easy to find 

so I will treat you like statistics until it drains this love from me
