[Verse 1]
I feel so bad, my spirit's weak
Somebody please, what's wrong with me?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
(What do you see?)
I see a forest
(What kind?)
There's a light in the darkness
(Whatcha gonna do?)
I wanna walk in it
(What you say?)
[Verse 2]

Somebody please, what's wrong with me?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
(What do you see?)

(Whatcha gonna do?)

(何言ってんお?)
[Verse 3]
I feel so bad, my mind is weak
Somebody please, what's wrong with me?
[Pre-Chorus 3]
(What do you see?)
I see a key on the ground
(What kind?)
Just a key, but it's shining
(Whatcha gonna do?)
I wanna pick it up
(What you say?)
[Chorus]
I've got a feeling something's happening
It gives me a thrill, but it's also very

Frightening

Somebody please, what's wrong with me?
[Pre-Chorus 4]
(What do you see?)
I see a long wall
(What kind?)
It has no end
(Whatcha gonna do?)
Use the key to open it
(What you say?)
[Chorus]
I've got a feeling something's happening
It gives me a thrill, but it's also very
Frightening
Frightening
I've got a feeling something's happening
It gives me a thrill, but it's also very
Frightening
Frightening
