I have turned away from you And I am godless A wasteland of poison A hidden fortress I have blackened out the stars And hidden frequencies I have silenced all the waves And forbidden secrecies So step into your light This dog doesn't bite, oh I just wanna be your friend You know, I've never been in love before I've never been in love before There is nothing of you now No ghost, no not a trace No flower, not a seed Nor perfume in your place I have searched amidst A barren plane of emptiness I am worthless, It is futile You're invisible, I am infantile So step into your light, oh This dog doesn't bite, oh I just wanna be your friend You know, I've never been in love before I've never been in love before I have murdered the divine in me Set the goodness free I have squandered it all I am less than the sum I am parts of the whole There is something missing There is something I stole (There is something I stole) (There is something I stole) (There is something I stole) (There is something I stole) Why have you forsaken me? Where do you hide? I feel the betrayal Simmers, it blisters It digs down and burrows Deeper inside, more than a try (I've never been in love before) I cannot deny (I've never been in love before) That it (I've never been in love before) It feels like It feels like It feels like It feels like It feels like It feels like (I've never been in love before) (I've never been in love before) (I've never been in love before) (I've never been in love before) (I've never been in love before) (I've never been in love before) Love So step into the light, oh This dog doesn't bite, oh I just wanna be your friend You know that I've never been in love before I've never been in love before So step into the light, oh You know this dog doesn't bite, oh They caught up our hands You know, I've never been in love before
