Tonight out on the streets

I'm gonna follow you,
Tell you all about a scene
That you would kill for.
You're gonna love what's
Burning right in front of you -
But you won't see it
By the light of the sun.

Come out, tigerlily -
You're caressing me.
I'll take you up,
I'll turn you on,
I'll take your apathy.
I wouldn't lie to you, blossom,
Won't you let it go.
I'm gonna give you all you want,
And don't you know,

That you -
I know you better than this,
I could be here when you call,
I'll make you top of the list,
And in the crush of the dark
I'll be your light in the mist.
I can see you burning with desire
For a kiss -
Psychobabble all upon your lips.

They can sell it all they want,
But you cannot agree.
I don't like the taste
Of their morality.
You'll find your bread and your butter
Where you fake it
And put your face in the gutter
Of a snake pit.

But our communication
Is telepathy.
What you give is what you get
Out of us naturally,
And we can wait 'til the shadow grows long
And turn the page of a story
That has long since found a home.

I know you better than this -
I could be here when you call,
I'll make you top of the list,
And in the crush of the dark
I'll be your light in the mist,
I can see you burning with desire
For a kiss -
Psychobabble all upon your lips.

Have you ever felt
Like you're being followed?
Or watched the ones that held your stare?
Turned around to see who's behind you
To find there's no one there?
Lurking in the dark,
There's someone who breathes you night and day
There's a friend who wants so much more,
And if they can't have you,
They'll never let you walk away.
