Sitting here in our private hell,
Beneath the beating drums.
Wonder why we do this to ourselves,
So many times.
Now the battle lines are drawn,
So we face our fears defiant,
As we put our warpaint on..
To face you all.

'Cos I live to see the music
Set your hearts aflame
As you all applaud me.
And we yearn for your approval,
Won't you chant our name?
Won't you please adore me?

Then the music starts.
The spotlight wakens,
Some diva locked inside,
Some diva screaming.
Now the audience is cold,
But we whore ourselves regardless.
No matter what may come, (may break)
The show stays on.

'Cos I live to see the music
Set your hearts aflame
As you all applaud me.
And we yearn for your approval,
Won't you chant our name?
Won't you please adore me?

'Cos I live to see the music
Set your hearts aflame
As you all applaud me.
And we yearn for your approval,
Won't you chant our name?
Won't you please adore me?

And the audience was cold,
But right before my eyes.
This thunder-head explodes.
And I'm alive tonight!

And I give my soul to you!
In these minutes crystal bright!
Where every single moment, every song shrieks "I adore you!"

I adore you.
(Adore me)

I adore you.
(Adore me)

I adore... you!

'Cos I live to see the music
Set your hearts aflame
As you all applaud me.
And we yearn for your approval,
Won't you chant our name?
Won't you please adore me?

'Cos I live to see the music
Set your hearts aflame
As you all applaud me.
And we yearn for your approval,
Won't you chant our name?
Won't you please adore me?

Adore me!
