Thin and white and kinky hair
A shadow's climbing up the wall
Your letter lying near the phone
With honors for the patient one
I know your dark side is stronger than you think
You always were underneath
Was this trouble your nature?
Why can't you shake it
Even like this?
Was this trouble your nature?
Why can't you say it
Even like this?
I don't know why
I don't know why
They always have so much to say
And no one there who cared to hear
I know your darkness better than you think
While all your old lovers falling on their knees
And all their hearts exploding underneath
You always were good to me
Was this trouble your nature?
Why can't you shake it
Even like this?
Was this trouble your nature?
Why can't you say it
Even like this?
I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why
