KARESSA

You're on the air, I'm under ground

Signal's fading, can't be found

I finally open up

For you I would do anything

But you've turned off the volume

Just when I've begun to sing

Come to your senses

Defenses are not the way to go

And you know, or at least you knew

Everything's strange, you've changed

And I don't know what to do to get through

I don't know what to do

I have to laugh

We sure put on a show

Love is passe in this day and age

How can we expect it to grow?

You as the knight

Me as the queen

All I've got tonight

Is static on a screen

Come to your senses

Defenses inside are not for real

If we feel as we did, and I do

Can't you recall when this all began

It was only you and me

It was only me and you

But now the air is

Filled with confusion

We've replace care with illusion

It's cruel to be cold

Nothing lasts anymore

Love becomes disposable

This is the shape of things

We cannot ignore

Come to your senses

Suspense is fine if your just an

Empty image emanating out

Of a screen

Baby be real, you can feel again

You don't need a music box melody

To know what I mean

Deep in my eyes, what do you see

Deep in my sighs, listen to me

Let the music commence from inside

Not only one sense, but use all five

Come to your senses

Come to your senses

Come to your senses

Baby come back

Alive
