This kind of love
Heartbeat is racing
My chest is aching
I would be happy
Not ask for a thing
If something this deep
Was returned to me

Empty we stand here
With our palms facing upward
Begging for a hand

Armored eyes pass by us
Blood pumping through fragile veins
We’re all too afraid

Our hearts contradict
Our own inability
To find what we seek

Monotonous existence
I am veiling my daydreams
I am drowning it seems

Alive I am dead
Ignoring thoughts in my head
Monotonous existence

I’m only wanted for my body
And what I can do with it
I can’t control my eyes
With their flirting glimmer
I can feel myself betraying my needs
When I play this role
But the truth is
I’ve forgotten how to be a friend
And not a lover

I’m learning how to see
What it means to be alone and not lonely
Trapped in the worries of my mind
Nobody safe to turn and find
I look at eyes in the crowd
Wish I could hear their thoughts out loud
What’s going on inside
Is there anyone who can stand by my side
Take away the holes in the dance floor
And still be something of which I can be sure
I can feel his presence like ghost
And it’s the thing I want the most

While there is still sadness twinkling in your eyes
And your throat has hardly enough room for air
You suddenly become aware
This is your second chance

I know that they’ve got it better
But I can’t understand
Why I fall flat
Want someone to look at me like that

It’s hard to see the lovers
When I left it behind
For something with meaning
The things I’m dreaming

I hope that I will find
Just what I had in mind
And these thoughts inside
Will come alive
