Into the unknown
Into the unknown
Into the unknown
(Oh)

I can hear you but I won′t
Some look for trouble while others don't
There′s a thousand reasons I should go about my day
And ignore your whispers which I wish would go away, oh
Whoa

You're not a voice, you're just a ringing in my ear
And if I heard you, which I don′t, I′m spoken for I fear
Everyone I've ever loved is here within these walls
I′m sorry, secret siren, but I'm blocking out your calls
I′ve had my adventure, I don't need something new
I′m afraid of what I'm risking if I follow you

Into the unknown
Into the unknown
Into the unknown
(Oh)
(Oh)

What do you want? 'Cause you′ve been keeping me awake
Are you here to distract me so I make a big mistake?
Or are you someone out there who′s a little bit like me?
Who knows deep down I'm not where I′m meant to be?
Every day's a little harder as I feel your power grow
Don′t you know there's part of me that longs to go

Into the unknown?
Into the unknown
Into the unknown
(Oh)
(Oh)
Whoa

Are you out there?
Do you know me?
Can you feel me?
Can you show me?

Ooh
(Ah) ooh
(Ah) ooh
(Ah) ooh
(Ah) ooh
(Ah) ooh

Where are you going?
Don′t leave me alone
How do I follow you




Into the unknown?
Woo!
