Lyrics

Maybe I listen more than you think And I can tell that somebody sold you We said we'd never let anyone in We said we'd only die of lonely secrets The system only dreams in total darkness Why are you hiding from me? We're in a different kind of thing now All night you're talking to God I thought that this would all work out after a while Now you're saying that I'm asking for too much attention Also no other faith is light enough for this place We said we'd only die of lonely secrets The system only dreams in total darkness Why are you hiding from me? We're in a different kind of thing now All night you're talking to God I cannot explain it Any other, any other way I cannot explain it Any other, any other way The system only dreams in total darkness Why are you hiding from me? We're in a different kind of thing now All night you're talking to God I cannot explain it Any other, any other way I cannot explain it Any other, any other way I cannot explain it Any other, any other way I cannot explain it Any other, any other way
