Curiosity (from Latin curiosus "careful, diligent, curious," akin to cura "care") is an emotion related to natural inquisitive behavior such as exploration, investigation, and learning, evident by observation in human and many animal species. The term can also be used to denote the behavior itself being caused by the emotion of curiosity. As this emotion represents a drive to know new things, curiosity is a major driving forces behind scientific research and other disciplines of human study.
Although many living beings have an innate capability of curiosity, it should not be categorized as an instinct because it is not a fixed action pattern; rather it is an innate basic emotion because while curiosity can be expressed in many ways, the expression of an instinct is typically more fixed and less flexible. Curiosity is common to human beings at all ages from infancy through adulthood, and is easy to observe in many other animal species. These include apes, cats, rodents,fish, reptiles, and insects; as well as many others.[citation needed] Many aspects of exploration are shared among all beings, as all known terrestrial beings share similar aspects: limited size and a need to seek out food sources.[vague]
What lies beyond the lies?
Do the blind see their dreams?
Plot
Mr. X jars awake buried in a pile of snow with an open gash on his forehead and no memory of his identity. Wandering a vast winter forest that has neither a beginning nor an end, he finds himself meeting the most peculiar of personalities along the way. All he wants to know is just who he is...
It will all come back to you...eventually.
Curiosity, I've got to know
Is she just a play thing?
Curiosity, I wanna know
Baby can I pull your string?
At every dance, she is on your arm
You even let her drive your car
She wears your ring, you treat her oh so fine
But you're telling me that I'm the one that's on your mind
When she took a walk to the ladies room
You didn't hesistate to run to me
I don't wanna be caught in the middle of you
But your charm keeps gettin the best of me
Curiosity
Curiosity
When you get home out of the socialite
You call me with the same excuse
I get upset, but you talk so smooth
Got me running round in circles feeling so confused
One thing that I've learned is to be careful what you're wishing for
Cause what you receive isn't always what you need
But you are the star in all my dreams
(Chorus)
(2 times)
Baby, I don't wanna be just a play thing
Baby, I've got to have it all
(Repeat three times)
Your love is beautiful.
Your love is sensual.
My love will puncture your skin.
My love goes all he way in.
Your love is poetry.
My love is sodomy.
Your love is everything.
My love is anything.
We believe it's personality, but really it's sexuality.
We put faith in love and honesty, but the stuff that makes our history and sets
us free is curiosity,
Curiosity.
Curiosity.
Curiosity.
My love is physical.
A shameless animal.
One with all riding the wave.
A childish lust feeling it's way.
We pretend it's personality, but it's really sexuality.
We put faith in love and honesty, but the stuff that makes our history and sets
us free is curiosity,
Curiosity.
Curiosity.
Curiosity.
You say love's divine.
(My love if beautiful)
Well baby, so is mine.
(My love if beautiful)
See, the only time I hear you take the name of the Lord
(Your love will puncture my skin)
Is when you're tied to the bed with your face against the head board.
(My love is beautiful
Your love will puncture my skin
We believe it's personality)
So, do you take it in vain?
And why would you take it again and again?
We pretend it's personality, but it's really sexuality.
We put faith in love and honesty, but the stuff that makes our history and sets us free is.
Break a bone
Got me on my knees
You break my heart
Just to watch it bleed
I’m sick with love
Sick like a disease
Don’t call me up
Just so I can please you
I can’t stand the way you’re smiling
I can’t stand the way I’m lying
I know, I know, I know you got the key
And you know, you know, you know that it’s for me
It’s not up to you, you know it’s up to me but
Curiosity will never let me go
Oh oh oh oh oh oh,
Uh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Will never let me go
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Uh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Look at me
Left here in the corner
Stupid girl
I really tried to warn her
Walked the streets all night
Until you came around
Knew that you would come
Before you ever even made a sound
I know, I know, I know you got the key
And you know, you know, you know that it’s for me
It’s not up to you, you know it’s up to me but
Curiosity will never let me go
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Uh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Will never let me go
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Uh oh Curiosity

This is crazy love
And you know I’m gunna follow you home
Through the rain
Cause I need your love
And you know I’m gunna follow you home.
Cause I need your love and you know I’m going to follow you…
I know, I know, I know you got the key
You know, you know, you know that it’s for me
Well I think that we should try it out to see yeah
Curiosity

And you know I’m gunna follow you home

Sail, sail away,
There you go,
To a place you know.
Why not let me come along,
I won't tell no one.
Now our bodies have entwined,
Touch me with your mind.
Your dreams are a mystery,
Please share them with me.
Curiosity is killing me,
I just got to know.
Curiosity is killing me,
I just got to know
Where, tell me where,
Where are you sailing...
Sail, sail away,
There you go,
To a place you know.
Why not let me come along,
I won't tell no one.
Sail, sail away,
Sail, sail away,
Sail, sail away,
Curious and bored, stumbled through the door
Tripping over expectations she never knew before
Then, curiosity turns her gaze to me
I think she caught me staring at her, I just had to see
The beauty of desire is shamelessly inspired
God, it's overwhelming me
And basking in the sun seems dangerous and fun
God, it's overwhelming
Curiosity, curiosity
Curiosity is killing me
This infatuation
Is getting out of hand
In this kind of situation
One needs discipline
Curiosity, curiosity
Curiosity is killing me
The beauty of desire is shamelessly inspired
God, it's overwhelming me
And basking in the sun seems dangerous and fun
God, it's overwhelming
Penetrating throught your skin to the flesh
I force myself throught be fore it's too Late
These thoughts are weird, too selfish and ugly
But increase my life power, gotta prove that I'm some-
thing
Child again
I feel I'm bore again
Wave the flag
I feel so free again
(Once) I tried to escape the rain of my pain
I was realy insane, didn't love what I created
But then lightning struck me and I awoke to a new morn-
I returned to the sand
I returned to the cradle
Curiosity - please, make a man of me!
Hold the line - let's make this music free
Curiosity - get a hold of me!
Wave the flag to keep this music free!
It's so useless to flee the cradle
As a child you used to know what you were able
An'now you just follow your empty shadow
Better hold the line
Better hold the line of life!
Curiosity - please make a man of me!
Hold the line - let's keep this music free
With our curiosity!
Wave the flag
Imagine all, all our lives
Battlefields of broken dreams
Still waiting for, for things to come
Still reaching for something new
Yes spirit knows, what we are
We cheat ourselves with what we've done
We played the fools, we cut the ground
Philosophy declines we were so wrong
This curiosity it kills me
This curiosity it pulls me down
This curiosity it kills me
This curiosity it pulls me under and down
Imagine all the emptiness
On our elementry way
All emotions out of control
The fear of failure beats us
Tear down the wall
Change your mind, or leave it all
How can we comprehend
As fast as the world is changing
It's hard to find anything amazing
Take away the mystery
Find some comfort in the routine
We can't control what's behind the scenes
Old men swap conspiracies
Anything to keep it interesting
I believe it all now
Faith is risky
Smart enough to confuse myself
How stupid better get used to it
Both clarity and confusion are part of the movement
Open me up shut me down
Silence is the sweetest sound
Close my mouth and think out loud
I'm in the real world now
That's just your curiosity
Interrupting the routine
Woke up with nothing under my feet
Looking for something
Looking for something
I know in part see in part
Spent a lot of time in the dark
Lost in the options now I'm listening with caution
Somewhere between imagination and fear
Unsure of what I'm trying to hear
I don't trust loud and clear
Put a still small voice in my ear
Whisper to me quietly so I can figure it out
Honestly avoiding noise pollution
And easy to use conclusions
Because some things weren't meant to be spelled out
Still it's the simple things that count
Close my mind and think out loud
I'm in the real world now
That's just your curiosity
Interrupting the routine
Woke up with nothing under my feet
Looking for something
Looking for something
Superstition
True religion
The near truth can't tell the difference
Beautifully written contradictions spoken with such conviction
I've held a lot of conversations with well thought out exaggerations
Thin line between insanity and insight
Better hope you're right
That's just your curiosity
Interrupting the routine
Woke up with nothing under my feet
Looking for something
Looking for something
That's just your curiosity
Interrupting the routine
Woke up with nothing under my feet
Looking for something
You thought you'd think of a way to escape the realm of curiosity.
You thought you'd mingle your way into the unknowns of society
But you know , they'll get you every time , any which direction you seek
'Cause the answer is out there, it's a game only they know how to play
Stand up, you might fall , play with fire, you'll get burned
And when you think of the possibilities , you'll wind up getting hurt
CURIOSITY
It'll get you every time (so you'd better be prepared to die)
You thought you'd scare them away by claiming that you knew it all along
You tried to act out a play , they just laughed when they saw you fall
But you knew they'd lose in the long run 'cause every day the players grow weak
And the answer my friend , is bound to come out
There's a feeling deep within me
I can't describe
Like drifting carelessly
It's a boundless kind of freedom
That's in this world
I step in every night
Some strange blend of fear
and curiosity
Is travelling with me
I often can't recall
Where I've been the night before
This is like a big illusion
So real to us
(that you take for real)
it's getting hard to leave
there are figures, there are stories
so wonderous
Sometimes I don't know
Have I seen the light?
Or have I just lost my way
Some strange blend of fear
and curiosity
Is travelling with me
I often can't recall
Where I've been the night before
This is like a big illusion
So real to us
(that you take for real)
it's getting hard to leave
there are figures, there are stories
so wonderous
This is like a big illusion
So real to us
(that you take for real)
it's getting hard to leave
there are figures, there are stories
so wonderous
Sometimes I don't know
Have I seen the light?
Or have I just lost my way
This is like a big illusion
So real to us
(that you take for real)
it's getting hard to leave
there are figures, there are stories
[Featuring Dent Lil' Mo]
[Nicole]
C'mon make it hot
Ooh ooh (x2)
Let me know let me know
What you want what you want
[Nicole Verse One]
The curiosity baby it's killing me
Cause I can tell that you're interested I
Can sense that you're feeling me
Your actions mean more to me than
Words you are too shy to say
To my friends behind your back baby
Won't you say it to my face
[Chorus]
If you wanna be with me
And you got a thing for me
Don't you walk away from me
Don't you be afraid of me
If you wanna roll with me
C'mon and roll with me
[Nicole - Verse Two]
Intensity, made me sweat a brother majorly, I
Was sure it was you, you that was paging me
All the seven days of the week
But you got a case of butterflies, baby
I wonder why
Heard you say, "I'm so fly" (I'm so fly)
Let's hook up on later tonight
[Repeat CHORUS]
[Nicole]
If you really want me baby
Let me know
Let me know, what you want
What you looking for baby, out the door
Gotta go, gotta go
[Lil' Mo - Rap]
Yo I heard from a bird that you liked it hot
Could we meet at the spot
In the parking lot
I got my mama's car so don't go slow
It's 11:22, and at 12, I ghost, yo
[Dent - Rap]
Yo, slow it down lover, bout a half an ounce
I got 38 minutes just to make you bounce
So lets take a ride
You and I
Dont you let me pass you by
Here we go
Let em know
You dont even gotta watch
[Lil' Mo - Rap]
So whatcha say yo, you got the joes for me
Caught a glimpse of my Benz, now you roll with me
You wanna lay up in my ride, and get fly with me
In the drivers seat
You wanna shine with me
[Dent - Rap]
Damn right, I wanna shine, if I can shine with you
And you say you're getting yours, I gotta get mine too (uh huh)
It sounds good coming from a lady looking like you (say what, playa)
It's just the things we do
[Nicole]
Wanna thing
Gotta thing
Don't you walk away
Don't you walk away
No no no no no
If you wanna roll, c'mon and roll with me
Baby baby yea
[Repeat CHORUS til fade]
Curious and bored
Stumbled through the door
Tripping over expectations
She never knew before
Then, curiosity
Turns her gaze to me
I think she caught me staring at her
But i just had to see
The beauty of desire
Is shamelessly inspired
God, it's overwhelming me
And basking in the sun
Seems dangerous and fun...
God it's overwhelming
Curiosity...
Curiosity...
Curiosity...
Is killing me
This infatuation
Is getting out of hand
In this kind of situation
One needs discipline
Look around the old curiosity shop
You could buy it all and waltz out with the lot
But take me with you
Cos I don't want to stay
With all these fools
The likes of us, you know we're just
Flies on the wall
So get rid of all the weights of all your cares
Before the cancer comes and gets you unawares
Well, I'm coming too
Cos I don't want to stay
With all these fools
I'm sorry son, there's no room on the bus
For flies on the wall, flies on the wall
On the wall
Come rain, come flood
I hate my face
I'm so in love
But still I can't escape
The vision of the fly on the wall
Fly on the wall
Because of curiosity
All the Vandals had to see
The golden throne of Ancient Rome
And brought the city to its knees
Because of curiosity
Because of curiosity
I?m just riddled with anxiety
I?m the lowest level as a matter of fact
I often dwell for days on this
And when I see your smiling face
I'm so disgraced
And if you?re holding out on me
I get curious, as curious as I can be
Curious, because of curiosity
Curiosity killed the cat
But satisfaction brought it back
In terms of this cat, as a matter of fact
I?ll meet you at the old mouse hole
I?ll meet you at the old mouse hole
When I see your smiling face
I?m so disgraced
If you?re holding out on me
I get curious, as curious as I can be
Curious as I can be
Curious as I can be
Whenever you feel confused
Lost in the clouds
Mind drifts
Try to find the meaning of life
And take a moment breathe in deep
And open your heart
There's always sunshine
Imagine
All the good things in your life
Release all the pain
Look up high
Above stars
Darkness there to synchronize sky
And where we are just a step from the light
Look through the clouds there is paradise
See the sky, there is only hope ‘cause it's in your future
Curiosity
And feel the sense bloom inside of you
Reach to your heart there is Paradise
And you will shine wherever you are
It's only brightness
Refine, take a chance and survive
Find yourself standing alone
Reality
No truth
It's all in the virtual mind
Caught in the eclipse of time
Between day and night
There's only silence
Imagine
We are connected mind
It's just around the world
Believe change, and
Believe life
The light will guide you to your heart
And where we are just a step from the light
Look through the clouds there is paradise
See the sky, there is only hope ‘cause it's in your future
Imagine
All the good things in your life
Release all the pain
Look up high
Above stars
Darkness there to synchronize sky
And where we are just a step from the light
Look through the clouds there is paradise
