Lyrics
Waiting through my day for the night to bring you near
No one understands, I'm too crazy to feel fear
I miss you in my blood, I still taste you on my flesh
Lovers come and go, but I still love you best
Inside my room, you whisper in my head
I long to hold you, you offer words instead
Fact or fiction, I can't say.
Talking with the dead and I want you to stay
Behind these walls, I watch old movies on TV
You can be Bogart, but I?m stuck being me
Lying in my bed, shadows dance and taunt me now
My body burns with lust, can't you reach me somehow?
Inside my room, you whisper in my head
I long to hold you, you offer words instead
Fact or fiction, I can't say.
Talking with the dead and I want you to stay
Morning lights and disappears your face
Opening my eyes, you're long gone back to your place
Through laughter and tears, I surrender to my day
I know the joke's on me, 'cuz I can't change my wicked ways
Inside my room, you whisper in my head
I long to hold you, you offer words instead
Fact or fiction, I can't say.
Talking with the dead and I want you to stay
