You ask me to do some strange things
And do nothing in return
I'm like a mother of the kingdom
I fly too close and I get burned

But when I let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I shall never let you know
I can't help myself
But when I let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I can't never seem to go

Must I be a slave to my emotions
Couldn't feature someone else
I try to talk to you about my problems
But I end up talking to myself

I've had the biggest hand in my own downfall
'Cause I wanted to believe your lies
You told me you had terminal indifference
You told them I thought you were nice

I don't want to let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I wish I'd never let you know
I can't help myself
Don't want to let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I should have had the sense to go

Don't want to let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I wish I'd never let you know
I can't help myself
Don't want to let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I should have had the sense to go

Tell you something
Everytime I feel a little better
Something you do makes it worse
I thought you were the joy that I'd been seeking
But in fact you have become the reverse

Don't want to let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I wish I'd never let you know
I can't help myself
Don't want to let my feelings show
I can't help myself
I should have had the sense to go
