Chasing you around the room is tempting

But I know it could lead to danger

Once the joy starts there's no coming-no, no, coming back

I'm afraid to get up, play up this place

I'm afraid of losing my...face

I know how foolish I might seem-but you are too

I know this world is crazy-but I am too

Lock me away, I never want to see the light of day again...no more

Touch skin, feel the burn, what is it we mourn for?

Belonging to nothing is fine with me

But where would that lead?

Would you go down?

Would you frown?

Would you smile?

Maybe you would stay for a while

But staying would only lead to more burning skin.

What we do is wrong

Oh God, I should know better

She taught me better...

He taught me how you should respect me!

I don't like the things they do

I don't like the way she treats you

He is a liar too

God-they don't deserve you

I feel the aching, haunting

You cover me

-More burning skin-

I'm no longer cold...

Chasing you around the room is tempting...
