lyrics

Resigned myself to this, to the girl who did not want me, the ones who did not care.

Intoxicated with your hell, a memory of being smashed in, these stitches in your hair.

You know I never said a word.
I spent these nights with golden fragments, poisoned arrows, waiting for these buses to arrive.

Been watching ships all day sinking as corrupted lovers gather with their cigarettes and alcohol to play.

And I got up and placed a star on the old christmas tree, hoping someday I could die like some angel, like Paul Klee.

I lost the thrill to love and hate and only fragments re-arrange this solemn to this hate.

You lived your life in your sweet spell.
The broken hearts you tortured like pigs on a rack to fulfil your needs and ego.

In the end, you blew out all your veins.
The needle's halfway gently falling into place, can you hear yourself screaming in space?

Even if our souls are flushed out, even if the rain pours down
We’ll never see the world with bright lights and miracles.

And now the meadow’s fading in, I hang suspended from my sill, I'm holding up against my will.

And even if our souls are flushed out, and even if the rain pours down
We’ll never see the world with bright lights and miracles.

Even if our souls are flushed out, even if the rain pours down
We’ll never see the world, bright lights and miracles.
