Passion Above All Else Lyrics

Three weeks ago yesterday, the last time we spoke

Today's distance holds us too far to measure

And tomorrow will never hold us that close

Our hands once stitched together

Weaving bloodstreams into one

Arteries under pressure

Sharing breath in our lungs

Crossing our hearts hoping to die

If fingers untangled attempt to defy

Passion above all else

Giving my heart or nothing else

What's left of myself, isn't myself

When used up and placed on a shelf

Passion above all else

Giving my heart or nothing else

What's left of myself, isn't myself

Passion above all else

I opened up a hole in my chest, so deep

And extracted so much of myself

One can't help but hurt

This time I'm going to feel it in the morning

I dream of love when love can't be seen

I don't forgive you for giving up on me

But I understand what causes distance

And loss of interest

You said you'd give up the world

I've never meant so much to someone

And been so soon forgotten

Passion above all else

Giving my heart or nothing else

What's left of myself, isn't myself

When used up and placed on a shelf

Passion above all else

Giving my heart or nothing else

What's left of myself, isn't myself

Passion above all else

Passion pledges never to wander,

Never to wonder

What could be different, what could be undone

Swearing to stay true, undiluted,

Following through

Focused on the sun, the bearer of all purity

Shuttering out discouraging light

Channeling streams of foresight

To warm my face and never replace

Passion as the source of all grace
