Because Of You

When you left the room there were whispers
You're an object of lust, a subject of mystery
Tonight the pilot lights wink like eyes
The tubes glow blue
The fuses spark
The wires burn bright
Because of you
You are on everyone's special list
You've placed yourself in the center of it all
All the encore calls, they were for you
But here on sacred ground there's something wrong
I can't recognize you anymore

I held my breath as I watched the film
You looked like you, but you didn't look real
The scene looked fake
The gun shot blanks
The cars were stunts
The kiss took ten takes
Just a dream before waking

All the encore calls, they were for you
But here on sacred ground there's something wrong
I can't recognize you anymore

When you left the room there were whispers
You're an object of desire, a subject of mystery
But tonight, the pilot lights wink like eyes
The tubes glow blue
The fuses spark
The wires burn bright
Because of you
