(Gimme back) I need my hands
(Gimme back) I want my feet
(Gimme back) Give me my soul
I'm incomplete
(Gimme back) I need my eyes
(Gimme back) I want my teeth
(Gimme back) Gimme my scope
Give me my beliefs
Oh, here I hang on this - hook, line and sinker
Don't take the skin off my fingers!
(Gimme back) I need my arms
(Gimme back) My back is bent
(Gimme back) I want my hope
I'm deficient
(Gimme back) I need my blood
(Gimme back) I want my space
(Gimme back) Gimme my dream
I rest my case
Oh, here I hang on this - hook, line and sinker
Don't take the skin off my fingers!
Like a fire without a flame
Desert with no rain
(Gimme back) I need my face
(Gimme back) I want my beat
(Gimme back) Gimme my pulse
I'm in retreat
(Gimme back) I need my hair
(Gimme back) I want my voice
(Gimme back) Gimme my vision
Gimme back my choice
Oh, here I hang on this - hook, line and sinker
Don't take the skin off my fingers!
Like a fire without a flame
Desert with no rain
Oh, mountain high
I'm in so deep
Look down, look down on I
Take these chains from off my feet
I'm a fire without a flame
Desert with no rain
I want my beat
I'm incomplete
I want my face
I rest my case
