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
