    歌词：
 
    passion is sweet love makes weak

    you said you cherished freedom so

    you refuse to let it go follow your fate

    love and hate never fail to seize the day

    but dont give yourself away

    oh when the night falls and your all alone

    in your deepest sleep what are you dreaming of

    my skins still burning from your touch

    oh i just cant get enough i said i wouldnt ask for much

    but your eyes are dangerous

    oh the thought keep spinning in my head can we drop this masquerade

    i cant predict where it ends

    if your the rock ill crush against trapped in a crowd the music is loud

    i said i love my freedom to now im not sure i do

    all eyes on you rings so true better quit while youre ahead

    now im not so sure i am

    oh when the night falls and your all alone

    in your deepest sleep what are you dreaming of

    my skins still burning from your touch

    oh i just cant get enough i said i wouldnt ask for much

    but your eyes are dangerous

    oh the thought keep spinning in my head

    can we drop this masquerade i cant predict where it ends

    if your the rock ill crush against my soul my heart

    if youre near if youre far my life my love

    you can have it allooohaaaah.

    oh when the night falls and your all alone

    in your deepest sleep what

    are you dreaming of my skins still burning from your touch

    oh i just cant get enough i

    said i wouldnt ask for much

    but your eyes are dangerous oh the thought keep spinning in my head

    can we drop this masquerade i cant predict where it ends

    if your the rock ill crush against ooh， if your the rock ill crush against
