[English]

Looking for a candidate

You have an option, only one choice

Sipping my drinks, looking around

There's so much beauty, oh yes, we can

But yet self-confidence is a fragile concept

That often fades away in the night

And there it comes, that unwanted guest

There is no place for you tonight

Want me to go, want me to go

'Cause you think I'm lying, 'cause you think I'm lying

No, open the door

'Cause tonight I cannot go hunting for stars, no, no

Like an evil satellite

Twisting the truth then leaving us alone

In this mad and moody world

Society without love

I state my heart has been well-trained

I'm gonna be your candidate

I am the hunter and you are the prey

Tonight I'm gonna eat you up

Want me to go, want me to go

'Cause you think I'm lying, 'cause you think I'm lying

No, open the door

'Cause tonight I cannot go hunting for stars

I press my nose to the glass

It's raining outside, it's raining outside

I would like to storm in

Roar like a lion, roar like a lion

But I fear your judgement, I fear your judgement

I'm so wet, I'm dirty

But I fear your judgement, I fear your judgement

It's me and my imperfection

Want me to go, want me to go

'Cause you think I'm lying, 'cause you think I'm lying

No, open the door

'Cause tonight I cannot go hunting for stars, no, no

Want me to go

'Cause you think I'm lying, 'cause you think I'm lying

No, open the door

'Cause tonight I cannot go hunting for stars, no, no

Want me to go

'Cause you think I'm lying, 'cause you think I'm lying

No, open the door

'Cause tonight I cannot go hunting for stars, no, no
