Come a little closer
I'm not gonna bite you
Don't listen to what they say
I'm not gonna lie to you

They don't really know me
They can't penetrate these eyes you see
I need you to show me
How to love again

But not today
Not today

Today's already dead
Open up and swallow
They'll pack the poison in
Don't worry 'bout tomorrow
Some other soul will pay for your sins

What I wanna know is not out there
At least in the Biblical sense
The world is pouring its heart out and no one's listening

Not today
Not today

Someone take a chance
I might be kind of kind-at-heart
But I felt love from the start
Out of place when face-to-face with
Apathetic arts
And you, you feel so real to me
I know you hear and sense and see
The tie between the tie between
The only bond that sets us free

Maybe
Maybe
Not today
