A respect overload   Blocks your way to get to know me well   But I won't hear what you say   From underneath my diamond shell      I don't know why I tell you   Do you believe me when I tell you?      If you don't know the way   Why am I waiting for you here?   Although we're close in your mind   We're separated by your fear      I don't know why I tell you   Do you believe me when I tell you?   Have you got something against me?   I've got nothing against you   I really wanna know you      You don't leave me, but leave me alone   I don't need to be on my own   Reach for me -- I cannot reach for you   You don't see if I throw you a bone   I won't wait until the cowards come home   Reach for me -- I really want you to   Aah, that's a good girl      A respect overload   Is something I don't recommend   It might be easy to quit   But so damn hard not to start again      I don't know why I tell you   Do you believe me when I tell you?   Have you got something against me?   I've got nothing against you   I really wanna know you      You don't leave me, but leave me alone   I don't really need to be on my own   Reach for me -- I cannot reach for you   I don't see if you throw me a bone   I won't wait until the cowards come home   Reach for me -- I really want you to      Aah, that's a good girl   Oh, such a good girl   Nobody told you   But I really wanted to   Out of the darkness   Into my emptiness
