Call It Fate, Call It Karma Lyrics

Close the door
Not all the way
We don't understand
We don't understand

So don't you remind me
I don't know a thing
And some of us remember
And some run in their place

Can I waste all your time here on the sidewalk?
Can I stand in your light just for a while?
I've waited around and oh no
You are are not around
I needed more time watching you

You got it down, why don't you?
I wanted to understand your place
So don't you wanna remind me?
I don't know a thing
And some of us remember
And some run in their place

Can I waste all your time here on the sidewalk?
Can I stand in your light just for a while?
I've waited around and oh no
You are not around
I needed more time watching you
Watching you..

I needed someone
I needed someone

I absolutely adore this song. The way Julian sings it, it's so seductive. I want to make love to a girl, while this is playing in the background. Thats how I feel.

This song seems like it's about being a in relationship with someone that you are really super in love with and then they just up and leave you. It sucks some pretty big balls.

-also I think that it is possible that this song is the reflection of thoughts by the shadowed darkness that lays in wait , and it's obsession with control, and lust. The obsession of that darkness is not a violent one but a love song trying to lure the masses back to it.

Does anyone know for sure if it is really Julian singing the chorus too? It's a bit hard to tell if the chorus is featuring a girl or if it is actually him....

It's definitely him. Dude has a hell of a falsetto range.
