lyrics

Like a subterranean creature who hasn't seen the light in years
I break through the surface of the earth and find you standing here
Forgive me, I don't mean to stare
But, oh God, I love the color of your hair

You come in the middle of the night and wait right outside my door
Like a supernatural stranger I've been warned about before
And my better judgment begs me not to let you in
But, oh God, I love the smell of your skin

And the lightning strikes the table, and my heart begins to race
My fingers twitch and I wake up in an unfamiliar place

There's a chemical explosion and I'm caught up in the blast
And it burns off every protective layer I've built up with my past
And the black smoke clears away, you're the only thing that I see
Oh God, what is happening to me?
