Lyrics from the MIDI .kar music file

Hide in your shell
cos the world is out to bleed you for a ride
What will you gain
making your life a little longer?
Heaven or Hell,
was the journey cold
that gave you eyes of steel?
Shelter behind
painting your mind and playing joker

Too Frightening to listen to a stranger
Too Beautiful to put your pride in danger
You're waiting for someone to understand you
But you've got demons in your closet
And you're screaming out to stop it
Saying life's begun to cheat you
Friends are out to beat you
Grab on to what you can scramble for

Don't let the tears linger on inside now
Cos it's sure time you gained control
If I can help you, if I can help you
If I can help you, just let me know
Well, let me show you the nearest signpost
To get your heartback and on the road
If I can help you, if I can help you
If I can help you, just let me know~~~~~~~~.

All through the night
as you lie awake and hold yourself so tight
What do you need,
a second hand movie star to tend you?
I as a boy,
I believed the saying the cure for pain was love
How would it be
if you could see the world through my eyes?

Too Frightening the fire's getting colder
Too Beautiful to think you're getting older
You're looking for someone to give an answer.
But what you see's just an illusion
You're surrounded by confusion
Saying life's begun to cheat you
Friends are out to beat you
Grab on to what you can scramble for

Don't let the tears linger on inside now
Cos it's sure time you gained control
If I can help you, if I can help you
If I can help you, just let me know
Well, let me show you the nearest signpost
To get your heartback and on the road
If I can help you, if I can help you
If I can help you, just let me know~~~~~~~~.

I wanna know~~
ooo
I wanna know~~ you
Well let me know you~~
ooo
I wanna feel~~ you
I wanna touch you~~
ooo
Please let me near you~~
I wanna know~~ you
Well let me know you
ooo
I wanna know~~ you
Well let me know you~~

Can you hear what I'm saying?
Well I'm hoping, I'm dreamin' I'm prayin'~~~~
I know~~ what you're thinkin'
See~~ what you're seein'
Never ever let yourself go

Hold yourself down~~
hold~~ yourself down
Why d'ya hold yourself down?~~~~
Why don't you listen, you can
Trust me,
There's a place I know the way to
A place there is no need to
feel you
Feel that you're all alone
wow wow wow
Hear me
I know exactly what you're feelin'
cos all your troubles are within you
please begin to
see that I'm just bleeding to
wow wow wow
Love me, love you
Loving is the way to
Help me, help you
Why must we be so cool, oh so cool?
Oh, we're such damn fools~~~~
Oh, we're such damn fools~~~~
Oh, we're such damn fools
