Selfsame
Now I've done as you asked me
Will you stay? Will you stay?
Now I've done what you asked me
Can I stay here?
You know I never wanna see, never wanna see you alone again
Because I never wanna be, never wanna see me alone
I was born with my eyes wide open
And I won't start hoping on a star right now
You try to tempt me with your store-bought passion
But your forethought flashes in the dark
Somehow, we hurt each other for the selfsame reasons
There's a sad, strange treason in the heart
And you say you will, but you know you'll never move from where you are
I was young and un-emptied
Unafraid, unafraid
I was young, and you bent me
To your way here
I get the feeling that you're not feeling that you've got me alone again
And if you're feeling that I'm not feeling it, I'm not coming home
'Cause I was born with my eyes wide open
And I won't start hoping on a star right now
You try to tempt me with your store-bought passion
But your forethought flashes in the dark
Somehow, we hurt each other for the selfsame reasons
There's a sad, strange treason in the heart
And you say you will, but you know you'll never move from where you are
She's a downhearted dancer (She's a downhearted dancer)
But she taught me a lesson (But she taught me a lesson)
'Cause if we are the answer ('Cause if we are the answer)
Then you've asked the wrong question
I was born with my eyes wide open
And I won't start hoping on a star right now
You try to tempt me with your store-bought passion
But your forethought flashes in the dark
Somehow, we hurt each other for the selfsame reasons
There's a sad, strange treason in the heart
And you say you will, but you know you'll never move from where you are
Will you stay? Will you stay?
Now I've done what you asked me
Can I stay here?
You know I never wanna see, never wanna see you alone again
Because I never wanna be, never wanna see me alone
I was born with my eyes wide open
And I won't start hoping on a star right now
You try to tempt me with your store-bought passion
But your forethought flashes in the dark
Somehow, we hurt each other for the selfsame reasons
There's a sad, strange treason in the heart
And you say you will, but you know you'll never move from where you are
I was young and un-emptied
Unafraid, unafraid
I was young, and you bent me
To your way here
I get the feeling that you're not feeling that you've got me alone again
And if you're feeling that I'm not feeling it, I'm not coming home
'Cause I was born with my eyes wide open
And I won't start hoping on a star right now
You try to tempt me with your store-bought passion
But your forethought flashes in the dark
Somehow, we hurt each other for the selfsame reasons
There's a sad, strange treason in the heart
And you say you will, but you know you'll never move from where you are
She's a downhearted dancer (She's a downhearted dancer)
But she taught me a lesson (But she taught me a lesson)
'Cause if we are the answer ('Cause if we are the answer)
Then you've asked the wrong question
I was born with my eyes wide open
And I won't start hoping on a star right now
You try to tempt me with your store-bought passion
But your forethought flashes in the dark
Somehow, we hurt each other for the selfsame reasons
There's a sad, strange treason in the heart
And you say you will, but you know you'll never move from where you are
