Shall we run?
Through my head
You understand
Does the body you conceal
Need the touch of someone's hand?
Ashes, violations--
Who would they burn for?
In your isolation...
Why can't you see?
I wonder if the lights out
I wonder if they're listening
Hold me
Lay your shame away
Show me
Where your lovers stay
Hold me
Lay your ghosts away
Show me
For yourself
You are lost
And alone
But a prisoner of your pride
When the passions you ignore
You can never hide
One of these days
You're going to find out
'Cause one of these days
You're going to try
And what did I say
To make you wind up
With this spear of guilt inside
I wonder if the lights out
I wonder if they're listening
Hold me
Lay your shame away
Show me
Where your lovers stay
Hold me
Lay your ghosts away
Show me
For yourself
Shall we walk? Shall we run? Through my head You understand Does the body you conceal Need the touch of someone's hand? Ashes, violations-- Who would they burn for? In your isolation... Why can't you see? I wonder if the lights out I wonder if they're listening Hold me Lay your shame away Show me Where your lovers stay Hold me Lay your ghosts away Show me For yourself You are lost And alone But a prisoner of your pride When the passions you ignore You can never hide One of these days You're going to find out 'Cause one of these days You're going to try And what did I say To make you wind up With this spear of guilt inside I wonder if the lights out I wonder if they're listening Hold me Lay your shame away Show me Where your lovers stay Hold me Lay your ghosts away Show me For yourself Explain Request ×
