Hush now, be still and listen to your breathing
There's a hum beneath the beating of my heart
Hush now, oh, can't you feel that silent violence
The push and pull of that desire, of that need
And yes, a dogfight's in my chest
And it is tearing me asunder
I can't ignore this hunger for you
And as I dance out in the darkness
With these eyes bright and wide with wonder
Oh no, I can't ignore this hunger for you
Don't speak, because I don't know what I'm thinking
Not sure to trust these crumpled feelings at my feet
Don't speak, 'cause words are feeble from this distance
All we have left is our resistance to this need
And yes, a dogfight's in my chest
And I can feel my knees turn rubber
And I can't resist this hunger for you
And as I dance out in the darkness
With these eyes bright and wide with wonder
I’ll find I can't ignore this hunger for you
Won't go, can't stay
What would you have me do?
Tired and torn with wanting for you
And yes, a dogfight's in my chest
And it is tearing me asunder
And I can't ignore this hunger for you
Don't leave me dancing in the dark
Don't look at me with eyes that wonder
Because I can't ignore this hunger for you
Hush now, be still and listen to your breathing
There is a hum beneath the beating of my heart
