| Count back, anaesthetise
|
| Colours burnt into my eyes
|
| Life for you is shades of grey
|
| Help me, help me find my way
|
| Lost, lost, and never found
|
| Hide your secrets, settle down
|
| I am young and I am naive
|
| Tell me something I will believe
|
| Take me, take me far away
|
| From this city’s soul decay
|
| Hid away 'til I was eighteen
|
| Only saw colours on a TV screen
|
| Skinny jeans and sunglasses
|
| A fashion statement for the masses
|
| What you’re doing makes me sick
|
| Over hyped and generic
|
| Shine, shine, like the sun
|
| Spread your warmth through everyone
|
| I asked you why people die
|
| You said we all had a design
|
| Slide into the sea
|
| Landslide comin' down on me
|
| I said I was into you
|
| You said you were into me
|
| You never answer on the phone
|
| With your nicotine lips and your heart of stone
|
| I look for you by the underpass
|
| Looks like this love wasn’t meant to last
|
| You said you reap just what you sow
|
| So tell me where does your garden grow
|
| You said in time the pain would pass
|
| Looks like the end is here at last
|
| Burn, burn, like a star
|
| Burn a hole in every heart
|
| Strung out on a trail of blood
|
| Who knew the stars were not enough?
|
| Smile, smile if you can
|
| If you can’t, I’ll understand
|
| See these stitches in my eyes
|
| Smash computers, kill rock stars
|
| Purge the past and waste my mind
|
| Leave no scent or trace behind
|
| One day when you bury me
|
| When I wake up, what will I see?
|
| Down, down, underground
|
| Dig for fire, dig for sound
|
| What is on the radio?
|
| Cause I would like to say hello
|
| Crawl, crawl through the dirt
|
| Jesus, show me what you’re worth
|
| Can’t you just send us a sign?
|
| Tell us all that we’re doing fine
|
| Nights for sitting in the dark
|
| Days for lying in the park
|
| Wake me up from my sick dream
|
| A requiem for this dead scene
|
| You never answer on the phone
|
| With your nicotine lips and your heart of stone
|
| I look for you by the underpass
|
| Looks like this love wasn’t meant to last
|
| You said you reap just what you sow
|
| Well tell me where does your garden grow
|
| You said in time the pain would pass
|
| Looks like the end is here at last
|
| Count back, anaesthetise
|
| Colours burnt into my eyes
|
| Life for you is shades of grey
|
| Help me, help me find my way
|
| Mother, can’t you help me now?
|
| Cause I’ve been drowning in the sound
|
| Lying on the motorway
|
| Writing songs and wasting away |
