Lyrics[]
Shall we walk? shall we run? through my head you understand. Does the body you conceal need the touch of someones hand? Ashes, violations, who would they burn for? In your isolation... why cant you see? (what I see..) I wonder if the lights out I wonder if theyre 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 youre going to find out cuz one of these days youre going to try And what did I say to make you wind up, with this spear of guilt inside What I wonder if the lights out What I wonder if theyre listening (chorus) (na na, na-na-na, naaa) (na na, na-na-na, naaa) (na na, na-na-na, naaa) (na na, na-na-na, naaa) Hold me... (na na, na-na-na, naaa) Show me... (na na, na-na, na na, na-na) (chorus)
