F G F E
I think we should talk
F G E
Yeah, we should communicate
I want what you want
The suspense unnerves me
 
You’re so indecisive
Don’t tell me you’re a Libra
Circle the room like you’re looking for blood
What makes you so subversive?
 
C
In the shadows
G
Tense up when it gets too tender
C
In the shadows
G
I’m raw and so obvious

Shadows
G
I don’t have any agenda
C
In the shadows
E
I wear my desire
 
You can’t escape this time
We’re in this together
A mindfuck, a total enigma
Have I found your weakness?
 
In the shadows
Patience is not my strongpoint
In the shadows
Raw and so obvious
In the shadows
Tense up when it gets too tender
In the shadows
I wear my desire, I’m one
 
In the shadows
When we fuck tastes like nirvana
In the shadows
Raw and so obvious
In the shadows
Tense up when it gets too tender
In the shadows
I wear my desire, I’m one
 
Everyone’s so self obsessed
What are you afraid of?
This thing, ethereal and wild
Is it too much, or not enough?
 
In the shadows
Tense up when it gets too tender
In the shadows
I’m raw and so obvious
Shadows
I don’t have any agenda
In the shadows
I wear my desire
 
Shadows, ooh
Shadows
Shadows
I wear my desire
