    D
He doesn't make your knees weak,
      Bm             G
he's beautiful and bleak.
         D
He has a porcelain face,
      Bm              G
that cracks when he speaks.
          A
I go to start a conversation but I,
Bm
get no reply,
              A
instead you stare just like a statue
    D                Bm G
as I break down and cry.

Your face is like an eagle
But your mind's like a crow
And boy, I know you have opinions
But you don’t let them show
You're a shelf of books, without the pages
A wealth of thoughts locked up in cages
(Locked up, locked up, locked up)
(Locked up, locked up, locked up)
(Locked up, locked up)

Chorus:
        A                       Bm
So if blood runs through your veins,
              A                Bm
don't you suppose it's such a waste
          A        Bm     D
to be composed in such a way?
Gm
Just let me in...

And you write me letters
In a pen with no ink
And you have your own eyes, but you don't dare blink
And you speak in words without a sentence
You're the ghost that haunts me without a presence
Without a presence, without a presence

Chorus:
And if blood runs through your veins
Don't you suppose it's such a waste
Oh, to be composed in such a way?
Just let me in (out, in, out, in, out, in)
Just let me in, oh (out, in, out, in, out, in, out, in)

Just let me in, oh (out, in, out, in, out, in)
Just let me in (out, in, out, in, out, in, out, in)
Just let me in
