lyrics

Your stare is strong, I’m too weak to fight back
And you’re very hard to read but I like that
You’ve got your morals and a lucky man at home
But it seemed normal that tonight you’d be alone, and I caught a stare
Just one stare, and it broke my bones
And it broke my bones

You are mysterious and I’m trying

Not to be weird with this so I’m shying
Away and away but you’re just pulling me right through
And I can’t fight it no more so tell me what to do, cause I caught a stare
One strong stare, now I’m torn in two
And I’m torn in two

So just point your stare
Away from me
And your glowing hair
I don’t want to see
And your angel eyes
Are the devil’s glare
And my brain will fight
But my heart is bare
So please, spare your stare

You want a change and I can see that
But second place, now I can’t be that
A will and a way says I can put up my defense
But every stare just pulls it off and onto the bench, and I’m out of plays
So find a way

To just point that stare
Away from me
And your glowing hair
I don’t want to see
And your angel eyes
Are the devil’s glare
And my brain will fight
But my heart is bare
So please, spare your stare

Oh, your stare is strong and I’m too weak
It’s even stronger when we don’t speak
You’ve got your morals at least I think
But you won’t blink
You win, I’m caving in
Oh I’m caving in

Oh, point that stare
Point it right at me
And your glowing hair
Is all I see
And your angel eyes
And your devil glare
My brain can’t fight
So my heart is there
You should’ve spared your stare
