Making up my life
Killer in the night
Rattling my brains
Looking for that light
Shine, shine
Ah shine so bright, shine
When does that thing
I want to breathe her in
Throw away my world
If I could see that pearl
Shine, shine, shine, shine
Shine, shine, shine, shine
The skin is deep
But your oh so weak
Don't put your faith
In the words they speak
The skin is deep
But your oh so weak
Don't put your faith
In the words they speak
Gimme gimme reason for the things I do
Silhouette I'm seeing in the shape of you
Gimme gimme reason for the things I do
Silhouette I'm seeing in the shape of you
Shine, shine, shine
Shine, shine
When it does that thing
Killer in the night
Rattling my brains
Looking for the light
Shine, shine, shine, shine
Shine, shine, so bright
Gimme gimme reasons for the things I do
The silhouette I'm seeing in the shape of you
[fade out]
