You've got your scene pinned underneath your thumb
And that’s the way you need it, yeah
You've got the dirt that hurts on everyone
And all the people see it, yeah

Every single heart would beat for you alone
If you would let it
Starving eyes led by subtle lies
No one knows the way you are when you’re alone
‘Cause you won’t let ‘em
Cut ‘em off before they get too close to you

Every single heart would beat for you alone
If you would let it
Starving eyes led by subtle lies
No one knows the way you are when you’re alone
‘Cause you won’t let ‘em
Cut ‘em off before they get too close to you!

Don’t let ‘em in, don’t let ‘em in!
You've gotta keep yourself composed!
So, don’t let ‘em in, don’t let ‘em in!
You've gotta cut them off before they get too close to you
