I tried to open up your heart but I couldn’t find it

up on a shelf inside a jar as you lay down beside it

and pretend not to hide but all the times denied

I wondered who you are

 

as I am looking further in floating through your disguises

until the game is wearing thin or you run out of surprises

I pretend not to notice so instead I’m holding on

to this feeling that I need

I need to know what you are

 

you know me so show me

the secret key to open your heart

you know it’s true but don’t show it

and you have been an enigma to me from the start

 

I would tell you things have changed but I never know how

I strike a match, ignite a flame just to see you explode now

by now you should have discovered

there couldn’t be any other one but you to blame

 

you know me, so show me

the secret key to open your heart

you know it but don’t show it

you’ve been an enigma to me from the start

I can’t get through till you fall apart

 

to know you, to show you

the secret key to open your heart

you know me now so show me how

to find a way to open your heart

you know it but don’t show it

the secret key to open your heart

you know it’s true but don’t show it

and you have been an enigma to me from the start
