You pull the sheets around your throat 
Talking like a harpy again 
I've got this heartache in my coat 
Since I don't remember when 
It's guaranteed to live and to bleed 
And you feed it with your bitterest lies 
Hope you can see what that's done to me 
But I don't care to look into your eyes 
There's no explanation 
There's no complication 

Dreamtongued man from the golden land 
Standing with the keys to your door 
I had to laugh as I shook his hand 
Didn't know he'd been here before 
I know him well but I never can tell 
If he sees right through my futile disguise 
Hope you can see what that's done to me 
But I don't care to look into your eyes 
There's no explanation 
There's no complication 

Walking alone down the path to your home 
On a silent and sensual day 
It almost could be my very own 
Before I went and lost my way 
Directions aren't clear when you're standing here 
And you cheer me with your faithless surprise 
Hope you can see what that's done to me 
But I don't care to look into your eyes 
There's no explanation
