 [feat. V V from The Kills] I was alone, falling free, Trying my best not to forget, What happened to us, what happened to me, What happened as I let it slip, I was confused by the powers that be, Forgetting names and faces, Passers by were looking at me, As if they could erase it. Baby, did you forget to take your Meds, [x2] I was alone, staring over the ledge, Trying my best not to forget, All manner of joy, all manner of glee, And our one heroic pledge, How it mattered to us, How would it mattered to me, And the consequences, I was confused by the birds and the bees, Forgetting if I meant it. Baby, did you forget to take your Meds, [x4] and the sex, the drugs, and the complications [x4] Baby, did you forget to take your Meds, [x6] I was alone, falling free, Trying my best not to forget [ top ] One last thing before I shuffle off the planet, I will be the one to make you crawl, So I came down to wish you an unhappy birthday, Someone call the ambulance, There's gonna be an accident I'm coming up on infrared, There is no running that can hide you, 'Cause I can see in the dark, I'm coming up on infrared, Forget your running, I will find you. One more thing before we start the final face-off, I will be the one to watch you fall, So I came down to crash and burn your beggar's banquet, Someone call the ambulance, There's gonna be an accident. I'm coming up on infrared, There is no running that can hide you, 'Cause I can see in the dark, I'm coming up on infrared, Forget your running, I will find you. Someone call the ambulance, There's gonna be an accident. I'm coming up on infrared, There is no running that can hide you, 'Cause I can see in the dark, I'm coming up on infrared, Forget your running, I will find you, 'Cause I can see in the dark, I'm coming up on infrared, There is no running that can hide you, 'Cause I can see in the dark, I'm coming up on infrared, Forget your running, I will find you. I'll find you I'll find you [ top ] You're always ahead of the game, I drag behind, You never get caught in the rain, When I'm drenched to the bone every time, You're the first one to swim cross the Seine, I lag behind, You're always ahead of the game, While I drag behind, I drag behind, I drag behind, I drag behind, I drag behind You're always ahead of the pack, I drag behind, You possess every trait that I lack, By coincidence or by design, You're the monkey I got on my back, That tells me to shine, You're always ahead of the pack, While I drag behind, I drag behind, x 8 You're always ahead of the rest, When I'm always on time, You got A's on your algebra tests, I failed and they kept me behind, I just gotta get off my chest, That I think you're divine, You're always ahead of the rest, While I drag behind. I drag behind, [x8] [ top ] Space monkey in the place to be, Riding in a rocket to a planet of sound, Shooting the moon, playing dominoes in drag, An increase in population of a hundred percent. Space monkey in the place to be, With a chemical peel and a picture of Mary, Out on a limb in the carnival of me, Raising the temperature one hundred degrees. We're sown together, she's born mesmer, Beside astride her, I die inside her, Space monkey in the place to be, A mass of contradictions in a golden frame, Raising the roof in a calamity way, Completely meretricious of a poke in the eye. Space monkey in the place to be, Talk of the town, with a Colombian rock, Out on a limb in the carnival of me, Raising the temperature one hundred degrees. We're sown together, she's born mesmer, Beside astride her, I die inside her, It's far too sacred, don't ever fake it, And don't, and don't, and don't let me down, Like you let me down before, [x2] Space monkey in the place to be, With some free-association and a hole in her head, Out on a in the carnival of me, Raising the temperature one hundred degrees. Were sown together, she's born mesmer, Beside astride her, I die inside her, It's far too sacred, don't ever fake it, And don't, and don't, and don't let me down, Like you let me down before, [x4] [ top ] The call to arms was never true, Time to imbibe, here's to you, I'll tell you stories bruised and blue, Of drum machines and landslides, Just one more round before were through, More psychedelic yuppie flu, It's such a silly thing to do, And now were stuck on rewind, Let's follow the cops back home, Follow the cops back home, Let's follow the cops back home, And rob their houses. The call to arms was never true, Let's take a ride and push it through, Suspended animation glue, And blame it on apartheid, Let's spend the night in Jimmy Choo's, I'll give you coats and cheap shampoo, Ill give you nothing else to do, and now were stuck on rewind. Let's follow the cops back home, Follow the cops back home, Let's follow the cops back home, And rob their houses. [x2] The call to arms was never true, I'm medicated, how are you, Let's take a dive, swim right through, Sophisticated points of view. Let's follow the cops back home, Follow the cops back home, Let's follow the cops back home, And rob their houses.

Don't go and leave me, And please don't drive me blind, Don't go and leave me, And please don't drive me blind. If I could tear you from the ceiling, I know best have tried, I'd fill your every breath with meaning, And find a place we both could hide. Don't go and leave me, And please don't drive me blind, Don't go and leave me, And please don't drive me blind. You don't believe me But you do this every time, Please don't drive me blind, Please don't drive me blind. I know you're broken[ x3] If I could tear you from the ceiling, I'd freeze us both in time, And find a brand new way of seeing, Your eyes forever glued to mine. Don't go and leave me, And please don't drive me blind, Don't go and leave me, And please don't drive me blind. And please don't drive me blind. [x4] I know you're broken [x3] [ top ] Leave me dreaming on the bed, See you right back here tomorrow, For the next round, Keep this scene inside your head, As the bruises turn to yellow, The swelling goes down, And if you're ever around, In the city or the suburbs Of this town, Be sure to come around, I'll be wallowing in sorrow, Wearing a frown, Like Pierrot the clown. Saw you crashing round the bay, Never seen you act so shallow, Or look so brown, Remember all the things you'd say, How your promises ran hollow, As you threw me to the ground. And if you're ever around, In the backstreets or the alleys, Of this town, Be sure to come around, I'll be wallowing in pity, Wearing a frown, Like Pierrot the clown. When I dream, I dream your lips, When I dream, I dream your kiss, When I dream, I dream your fists, your fists, your fists. Leave me bleeding in the bed, See you right back here tomorrow, For the next round, Keep this scene inside your head, As the bruises turn to yellow, The swelling goes down. And if you're ever around, In the city or the suburbs Of this town, Be sure to come around, I'll be wallowing in sorrow, Wearing a frown, Like Pierrot the clown, Like Pierrot the clown, [x4] [ top ] [feat. Michael Stipe from R.E.M.] We'll rise above this, we'll cry about this as we live and learn A broken promise - I was not honest Now I watch as tables turn (and you're singing) I'll wait my turn to tear inside you- watch you burn I'll wait my turn, I'll wait my turn I'll cry about this and hide my cuckold eyes as you come off all concerned I'll find no solace in your poor apology in your regret that sounds absurd (keep singing) I'll wait my turn to tear inside you- watch you burn I'll wait my turn to terrorize you- watch you burn I'll wait my turn, I'll wait my turn A promise is a promise A promise is a promise I'll wait my turn to tear inside you- watch you burn I'll wait my turn, I'll wait my turn A broken promise You were not honest I'll bide my time, I'll wait my turn [ top ] On top of the world you get nothing done, Talk is cold and burns like the sun, Can't you see these skies are breaking, 'Cause the top of the word is where I'm from, The back of the class is where I was, Keeping quiet playing dumb, Can't you see these skies are breaking, Cos the back of the class is where I'm from. And I am one, I am, I am one, I am, I am, I am, I am, I am. I'm on a race and it's killing time, I don't need yours I'll keep it with mine, Can't you see these skies are breaking, 'Cause I'm on a race and I'm doing fine, thank you, Two of a kind no one home, I'm in a crowd and I'm still alone, Can't you see the skies are breaking, 'Cause one of a kind is all I own. I am one, I am, I am one, I am, I am, I am, I am, I am. Out of the womb and into the void, I wanna try but I get annoyed, Can't you see these skies are breaking, 'Cause I'm out of the womb and into the void. I am one, I am, I am one, I am, I am, I am, I am, I am[x2] On top of the world you get nothing done. [ top ] In the cold light of morning, While everyone's yawning, You're high, In the cold light of morning, The party gets boring, You're high, As your skin starts a scratchin', Wave yesterday's action goodbye, Forget past indiscretions and stolen possessions, You're high. In the cold light In the cold light of morning, While everyone's yawning, You're high, In the cold light of morning, You're drunksick from whoring, And high, Staring back from the mirror's a face that you don't recognise, It's a loser, a sinner, a cock in a dildo's disguise, In the cold light Tomorrow [x3] As your skin starts a scratchin', Wave yesterdays action goodbye, Forget past indiscretions and stolen possessions, You're high. In the cold light of day, Tomorrow's only a kettle whistle, whistle [x 8], away In the cold light of day. [ top ] You are one of Gods mistakes You crying, tragic waste of skin I'm well aware of how it aches And you still won't let me in Now I'm breaking down your door To try and save your swollen face Though I don't like you anymore You lying, trying waste of space Before our innocence was lost You were always one of those Blessed with lucky sevens And a voice that made me cry My oh my You were Mother Nature's son Someone to whom I could relate Your needle and your damage done Remains a sordid twist of fate Now I'm trying to wake you up To pull you from the liquid sky 'Cause if I don't we'll both end up With just your song to say goodbye My oh my A song to say goodbye [x2] A song to say Before our innocence was lost You were always one of those Blessed with lucky sevens And a voice that made me cry. It's a song to say goodbye [x8] [ top ] |
