CHORUS, 2nd half
--song--
x4
walk into this room, oh, all eyes on me now
but i do not know the people inside
x2
look straight through me these eyes, seeking more wisdom than I
have to give away
realize, realize what you are
what you've become
just as i have
are you and I so alike?
i don't hear you
just as I am
afraid if we dance we might die
mock the world
lips they say "whyyyy?"
don't you know when you give life
then you become what you are
the sea is unsparing
we're all drifting away
away from you
i pray for you
x2
now
hoping to god on high
is like clinging to straws
while drowning
realize, realize what you are...
what you've become
just as i have
are you and I so alike?
i don't hear you
just as I am
afraid if we dance we might die
mock the world
lips they say white liiiiies
don't trust me, love yourself
then you'll become what you are
x4
what you are is the beast in a lover's arms
what you are is the devil in the sweet, sweet kiss
what you are is missing a piece
what you are is a puzzle to me
what you've become
just as i have
are you and I so alike?
i don't hear you
just as I am
afraid if we dance we might die
mock the world
lips they say liiiiies
don't you know, when you give life
then you become what you are
what you are is a puzzle
