Danger, Keep Away (Vermillion Version) Lyrics

I'm not what you think...
I'm not what you think...
I'm not what you think...
Or am I?

Why am I what you think?
Why am I what you think?
Why am I what you think?
You can never, ever know...

You can never, ever know...

Please, keep far away... (Far away)
Keep far away... (Far away)
Far away... (Far away)
Away-ay... (Far away)

Please keep far away... (Far away)
Keep far away... (Far Away)
Far away... (Far Away)
Away-ay...

I won't let you walk away,
without hearing what I have to say...
Without hearing what I have to say...
Without hearing what I have to say...

(x2)
That place in my mind,
is that space that you call mine?
That place in my mind,
is that space that you call mine?

(repeated throughout second verse)
Gotta try again...
Gotta try again...
Gotta try again...
Gotta try again...

Please, just trust in us...
Just trust in us...
Trust in us...
Us...

Please, just trust in us...
Just trust in us...
Trust in us...
Us..

Danger...
Danger...
Danger...
We, too, feel alone...

Danger...
Danger...
Danger...

(x9)
We, too, feel alone...

That place in my mind,
is that space that you call mine?
That place in my mind,
is that space that you call mine?

Where have I been all this time?
Lost and sliding... Fatal decline.
I've been waiting for this to unfold,
But pieces are only as good as they're whole...

Severed myself from my own life,
cut off the only thing that was bright...
What if I never saw you again?
I'd die right next to you in the end!

That place in my mind,
is that space that you call mine?
That place in my mind,
is that space that you call mine?

I won't let you walk away,
without hearing what I have to say...
Without hearing what I have to say...
Without hearing what I have to say...

DANGER
DANGER
DANGER
WE, TOO, FEEL ALONE...

I love this version of the song. as far as meaning, there are many interpretations, but here is what i came up with; he is debating what he is. he doesn't think he is what everyone else thinks he is, but then he ask, "why am i what you think?" and takes an introspective look at himself, and finds something dangerous, so he simply says "danger, keep away" but before the person he is talking to, he has to say something, then he says it. it seems as if there are 2 songs in one.
