lyrics
When I awoke I was surrounded by dogs hungry and weak
And the night bit me open, with its broken teeth
I could see you standing there, just like a candle flame
Why do we smother ourselves in shame?
Like a wild pony, I don’t dare try to tame
‘Cause you can’t control a kite in a hurricane
So you watch from a distance, and you fight the urge to touch
How can something hurt so much?
You don’t need no complications
I don’t need no explanation
The world feel asleep and the music it turned low
And you sang in the streets, it was all part of your show
I was the crowd, I was eager, I was shy
But should we live before we die?
You open the door and you tiptoe the stairs
I can still smell the night, it lingers in your hair
An exhibition of beauty that I can never share
Sometimes life doesn’t seem fair
You don’t need no complications
I don’t need no explanation
And the night bit me open, with its broken teeth
I could see you standing there, just like a candle flame
Why do we smother ourselves in shame?
Like a wild pony, I don’t dare try to tame
‘Cause you can’t control a kite in a hurricane
So you watch from a distance, and you fight the urge to touch
How can something hurt so much?
You don’t need no complications
I don’t need no explanation
The world feel asleep and the music it turned low
And you sang in the streets, it was all part of your show
I was the crowd, I was eager, I was shy
But should we live before we die?
You open the door and you tiptoe the stairs
I can still smell the night, it lingers in your hair
An exhibition of beauty that I can never share
Sometimes life doesn’t seem fair
You don’t need no complications
I don’t need no explanation
