You sit, and you stare, and you wait, and you wonder
You think: Maybe it's me, and I'm being a fool
You start to believe it's a curse that you're under
And you're just a doll for a girl who is cruel
With a pin

So let me out
Or let me in
And tell me how
We can win
'Cause I really wanna know now
Before I begin, oh
To let you go, to let you go
So let me know
Let me know

I'd rather be wandering hungry and homeless
Than here in the warmth of a silent defeat
You've gotta be honest with me and be ruthless
'Stead of shifting uncomfortably there in your seat
And your skin

So let me out
Or let me in
And tell me how
We can win
'Cause I really wanna know now
Before I begin, oh
To let you go, to let you go
So let me know

And who'd thought I'd have the strength to say
Let me out or let me in?
But as the words are forming in my mouth
I wanna say them again, and again, and again, oh!

Let me out
Or let me in, oh, no!
And tell me how
We can win, oh no!
I wanna know now!
Before I begin, oh!
To let you go, to let you go
Let me know
