[VERSE 1]

They’re cutting up the bodies

In the med school basement

But I am only watching

On an academic placement

I regulate my breathing

But I can’t escape the feeling

That I should not be watching

Today

[VERSE 2]

Earlier in the stairwell

I couldn’t hear you speak

And so I wander in the hallway

With Debaser on repeat, yeah

And if I knew for certain

That I’d keep my cool in person

Then I would not be watching

Today

[Chorus]

Help me

Whisper it for me

Now that the time’s come

I’m losing my nerve, love

Under your spell

[VERSE 3]

I ain’t got no reason

For hangin' round the library

’Cause I sure as hell ain’t reading

But you might sit beside me

When the streets are wet with darkness

We might walk to your apartment

But I would only watch you change

[Chorus]

Help me

Whisper it for me

I’m losing my nerve, love

And the power of speech

Maybe

You’re gonna take me

From the back of the classroom

From all of the geeks

And tell me your secrets

And teach me to speak

And break off your spell

Break off your spell

[BRIDGE]

Now this is over I promise you I’ll go

I'll wander in the night and never come home

Now this is over I promise you I’ll leave

And wander in the night, leading you to me

[Chorus]

Maybe

You’re gonna take me

From the back of the classroom

From all of the geeks

And tell me your secrets

And teach me to speak

And break off your spell

Break off your spell
