Transliterator |
Lady future’s arms are lily white |
They stretch before you come inside |
There’s room enough, she’s generous |
Come on, come up, while we’re still young |
You want to love your life from a prison? |
Of all this uninvited altruism |
The homemade weapons you’re fashioning |
Are hellbent on doing us both in |
You never mean what you say |
Why don’t you say what you mean? |
I never get anywhere |
I get the space in between |
Beautifully mutilated |
Instantly antiquated |
I will admit I almost always underestimate it |
You better mean what you say |
Why don’t you say what you mean? |
I never get anywhere |
I get the space in between |
Beautifully mutilated |
Instantly antiquated |
I will admit I almost always underestimate it |
Let’s begin at the beginning |
Let us revisit the past |
Like when the houselights are dimming |
Like silver screen photograph |
It makes a beautiful sound |
When nobody else is around |
It has a wonderful way |
Of eating up entire days |
We’ll go swimming in libations |
Forgive unexplained lacerations |
The otherworldly manifestations |
I could live in the breath you’re wasting |
You never mean what you say |
Why don’t you say what you mean? |
I never get anywhere |
I get the space in between |
Beautifully mutilated |
Instantly antiquated |
I will admit I almost always underestimate it |
You never mean what you say |
Why don’t you say what you mean? |
I never get anywhere |
I get the space in between |
Beautifully mutilated |
Instantly antiquated |
I will admit I almost always underestimate it |
You better mean what you say |
Why don’t you say what you mean? |
I never get anywhere |
I get the space in between here |
We go over again beautifully mutilated |
Instantly antiquated let’s wash our hands |
Of everything |
I will admit I almost always underestimate it |
You don’t owe them anything |
No, you don’t owe them anything |
No, you don’t owe them anything |
You never mean what you say |
Why don’t you say what you mean? |
I never get anywhere |
I get the space in between |
Beautifully mutilated |
Instantly antiquated |
I will admit I almost always underestimate it |
You never mean what you say |
Why don’t you say what you mean? |
I never get anywhere |
I get the space in between |
Beautifully mutilated |
Instantly antiquated |
I will admit I almost always underestimate it |
