Tango with Your Fear
When there's a soft drum roll that chills the skin
Slow portamento of a violin
You feel her coming
Before she slinks into the room
She cuts a devasting silhouette
In the low light of a smouldering threat
With an open hand
As she commands
You'll rise
She says she wants to be your friend
Just a warning to protect you from yourself
Your arm already 'round her waist
Chest to chest
Face to face
Counter-clockwise you both twist and spin
Through the traffic of your every sin
Through every nightmare
And every terror you design
Your pleading gaze meets her distrustful stare
Seductive lies the shade of deep despair
Oh so believable
So hollow
So easy
To follow
She says she wants to be your friend
Just a warning to protect you from yourself
Your arm already 'round her waist
Chest to chest
Face to face
You push and pull and dance the steps
Too exhausted to know strength or weakness
The sharp staccato of her breath
Keeps the beat
But you're the one who leads
You're the one who leads
You're the one who leads
Slow portamento of a violin
You feel her coming
Before she slinks into the room
She cuts a devasting silhouette
In the low light of a smouldering threat
With an open hand
As she commands
You'll rise
She says she wants to be your friend
Just a warning to protect you from yourself
Your arm already 'round her waist
Chest to chest
Face to face
Counter-clockwise you both twist and spin
Through the traffic of your every sin
Through every nightmare
And every terror you design
Your pleading gaze meets her distrustful stare
Seductive lies the shade of deep despair
Oh so believable
So hollow
So easy
To follow
She says she wants to be your friend
Just a warning to protect you from yourself
Your arm already 'round her waist
Chest to chest
Face to face
You push and pull and dance the steps
Too exhausted to know strength or weakness
The sharp staccato of her breath
Keeps the beat
But you're the one who leads
You're the one who leads
You're the one who leads
