Am I the snake inside your garden 
The sugar in your tea 
The knock upon your back door 
The twist that turns your key
Am I the sweat you feel on your head 
The shadow on your face 
The tune inside your head that put you here in the first place
Well I don't want to be
I don't want to be
I don't want to be your sweet temptation
I don't want to be your new sensation
It's such a delicate distraction 
With just a hint of satisfaction
Look me in the eye and let me know 
If you can't love me that let me go 
Let me go 
Let me go 

Do you try to stay suspended
In your deepest fantasy 
After night has ended 
The scent of mystery 
The power of suggestion
Tangles up your soul 
A neutral state between love and hate
Is bound to take its toll
Well I don't think you know 
I don't think you know 
I don't think you know about the screaming 
You don't understand the meaning 
You could trade it in for laughter 
To keep your happy ever after
Look me in the eye and let me know 
If you can't love me then let me go
Let me go
Let me go

Baby in your ivory tower 
Do you sleep tight dream fight 
Baby does it wet your appetite 
Maybe in your darkest hour 
Am I the keeper of your beast 
Well I don't want to be
I don't want to be 
So let me go
Let me go
