"Private Life" lyrics

"Private Life"

I don't wanna, I don't wanna
Hear my lies, hear my lies
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
Hear my lies, hear my lies
You'll never guess what was living inside
Of people like me and you
Oh and you'll erase what you embrace
So what will the good girls do
Sing it

I don't wanna, I don't wanna
Hear my lies, hear my lies
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
Hear my lies, hear my lies
You'll never guess what was living inside
Of people like me and you
Oh and you'll erase what you embrace
So what will the good girls do
Sing it

I can feel you creep into my private life
I can feel you creep into my private life
I can feel you creep into my private life

I just wanna, I just wanna
Hear your voice, hear your voice
I just wanna, I just wanna
Hear your voice, hear your voice
I'd never guess it was living inside
A hero like you-ou-ou
Oh if music kills, if music kills
The what will the good folks do
Sing it

I just wanna, I just wanna
(Reveal yourself, reveal yourself)
Hear your voice, hear your voice
(Reveal yourself, reveal yourself)
I just wanna, I just wanna
(Reveal yourself, reveal yourself)
Hear your voice, hear your voice
(Reveal yourself, reveal yourself)
I'd never guess it was living inside
A hero like you-ou-ou
(Reveal yourself)
Oh if music kills, if music kills
The what will the good folks do
(Reveal yourself)
Sing it

I can feel you creep into my private life
Let me go to that place, let me sit in that place, let me listen to that place
I can feel you creep into my private life
Let me listen to that place, feel the joy of that place, let me go to that place, let me sit in that place, lock in my soul to that place, feel the joy of that place
I will not abandon what my daughter knows!

Reveal yourself, reveal yourself
Reveal yourself, reveal yourself
Reveal yourself, reveal yourself
I don't wanna, I don't wanna
(Reveal yourself, reveal yourself)
Hear my voice, hear my voice
(Reveal yourself, reveal yourself)
I just wanna, I just wanna
(Reveal yourself, reveal yourself)
Hear your voice, hear your voice
(Reveal yourself, reveal yourself)
You'll never guess what was living inside
Of people like me and you
(Reveal yourself)
Oh and you'll erase what you embrace
So what will the good girls do
(Reveal yourself)
Sing it
