Come to Your Senses
[SUSAN]
You're on the air
I'm underground
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

[KARESSA]
I have to laugh
We sure put on a show
Love is passé 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

[SUSAN]
Come to your senses
Thе fences inside arе 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

[KARESSA]
But now the air is filled with confusion
We've replaced care with illusion

[SUSAN]
It's cool 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 you're 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

[KARESSA]
Deep in my eyes
What do you see?
Deep in my sighs
Listen to me

[SUSAN]
Let the music commence from inside

[SUSAN & KARESSA]
Not only one sense, but use all five

[SUSAN]
Come to your senses

[KARESSA]
Come to your senses
[SUSAN, (KARESSA)]
Come to your senses (Come to your senses)

[SUSAN & KARESSA]
To your senses
Baby, come back alive
