The music hums past a loud drone
We're trapped inside
The sea outside keeps us alone
I've tried
Times like these before I've tried
To play the game between strangers' eyes
But none have nibbled at the bait
Until tonight
You have hooks of your own
Ones I'll tempt you to use
Ones that'll make me sick
Ones that I'll want to abuse
Perhaps you understand
If someone like me
Has looked at you
In that way
You froze your breath
And looked away
But even when you looked back
They set you on fire with wanton gaze
If enticing looks lie inside the imagined world
Of what you crave
Look back at me
It won't rain all night
In this desert sky
Let my lightning bolt light you up
Until you die
Electrified
