Lyrics
There is a power in your gaze.
Traps me whenever I find it.
You say I never look at your face.
It's 'cause it's dangerously binding.
I'm lost in your haze, so
Stay away.
Stay away.
Stay away.
Stay, stay away.
You persist closer when I push away.
You threaten me just by your being,
'Cause I'll lose control.
I know I won't obey me.
Resistance is helplessly fleeting.
Won't you let me be? And
Stay away.
Stay away.
Stay away.
Stay, stay away.
My pulse, it quickens with the way you tease.
Suspense is killing, so just take me, please.
Things are dizzy now. I'm sick and slow,
But you know I like it, so please don't
Stay away.
Stay away.
Stay away.
Stay, stay away.
