What are you Doing

Songtekst

[Intro – whispered] Let me go… Don’t follow me. There’s nothing left for you to see. [Verse 1] I don’t see the light inside your eyes, No little spark, no fire alive. You stand there like a shadow in my way, Wearing the face I knew yesterday. Don’t come closer, don’t call my name, I won’t be another piece of your game. There’s something cold behind your skin, And I won’t let that darkness in. [Pre-Chorus] Go away from me, Just let me breathe. Take your hands And set me free. [Chorus] WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! (screamed) Tell me, what are you doing to me? You’re pulling at the only part That’s still alive in me. WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! (screamed) Can’t you see what you’ve become? Don’t take away my light, Don’t turn me into someone numb. Let me go! Let me go! Don’t follow me tonight. You can take these memories— BUT YOU WON’T TAKE MY LIGHT. [Verse 2] I used to see the stars inside your face, Now every color’s turned to grey. I searched for something human in your eyes, But all I found were empty skies. I gave you more than I could lose, Still somehow you wanted more. You kept on reaching for my soul While I was crawling toward the door. [Pre-Chorus] Stay away from me, Don’t make me bleed. I gave you everything— What more do you need? [Chorus] WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! (screamed) Tell me, what are you doing to me? You’re pulling at the only part That’s still alive in me. WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! (screamed) Can’t you see what you’ve become? Don’t take away my light, Don’t turn me into someone numb. Let me go! Let me go! Don’t follow me tonight. You can take these memories— BUT YOU WON’T TAKE MY LIGHT. [Breakdown – whispered / distorted] You wanted my love. You wanted my faith. You wanted every little piece I tried to save. My voice. My hope. My blood. My name. (silence) What else do you want from me? [Bridge – building] I won’t disappear Just to keep you alive. I won’t kill the flame in me So you can survive. If there’s nothing left behind your eyes, Then don’t reach inside of mine. Don’t touch it. Don’t break it. Don’t take what survived. [Breakdown – screamed] WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! GET OUT OF MY HEAD! GET OUT OF MY LIFE! YOU TOOK ENOUGH FROM ME— YOU WON’T TAKE MY LIGHT! [Final Chorus – huge] WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! (screamed) Tell me, what are you doing to me? I finally found the strength To become who I need to be. WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! (screamed) Now I see what you’ve become. You tried to bury all my light— BUT LOOK AT ME— I’M NOT DONE. Let me go! Let me go! Don’t follow me tonight. You can keep the scars you gave me. I’M TAKING BACK MY LIGHT. [Outro – almost whispered] I looked into your eyes… No sparkle. No shine. So don’t come looking for the light you tried to steal from mine. (whisper) Let me go.
