Lyrics
Ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh ♪ 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 hidin' from me? We're in a different kind of thing now All night you're talkin' to God I thought that this would all work out after a while Now you're sayin' that I'm askin' 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 hidin' from me? We're in a different kind of thing now All night you're talkin' to God And I cannot explain it, ah Any other, any other way I cannot explain it, ah Any other, any other way ♪ The system only dreams in total darkness Why are you hidin' from me? We're in a different kind of thing now All night you're talkin' to God And I cannot explain it, ah Any other, any other way I cannot explain it, ah Any other, any other way I cannot explain it, ah Any other, any other way I cannot explain it, ah Any other, any other way Ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh ♪ 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 hidin' from me?
