Are you such a dreamerTo put the world to rightsI'll stay home foreverWhere two and two always makes up fiveI'll lay down the tracksSandbag and hideJanuary has April's showersAnd two and two always makes up five
It's the devil's way nowThere is no way outYou can scream and you can shoutIt is too late now
Because...You have not been!
Payin' attentionPayin' attentionPayin' attentionPayin' attentionYou have not been paying attention

We're rotten fruitWe're damaged goodsWhat the hell we've got nothing more to loseOne gust and we will probably crumbleWe're backdrifters
This far but no furtherI'm hanging off a branchI'm teetering on the brinkOh! honey sweetSo full of sleepI'm backsliding
You fell into our armsYou fell into our armsWe tried hard but there was nothing we could doNothing we could do
All evidence has been buriedAll tapes have been erasedBut your footsteps give you awaySo you're backtracking
Ah ah ahYou fell into our armsYou fell into our armsWe tried hard but there was nothing we could doNothing we could doYou fell into our, ahYou fell into a

There's a gap in betweenThere's a gap where we meetWhere I end and you begin
And I'm sorry for usThe dinosaurs roam the earthThe sky turns greenWhere I end and you begin
I am up in the cloudsI am up in the cloudsAnd I can't and I can't come down
I can watch but not take partWhere I end and where you startWhere you, you left me aloneYou left me alone
X will now mark the placeLike the parting of the wavesLike a house falling into the seaInto the sea
I will eat you all aliveI will eat you all aliveI will eat you all aliveI will eat you all alive
There'll be no more liesThere'll be no more liesThere'll be no more liesThere'll be no more lies
I will eat you all aliveI will eat you all aliveI will eat you all aliveI will eat you all alive
And there'll be no more liesThere'll be no more liesThere'll be no more liesThere'll be no more lies
I will eat you all aliveI will eat you all aliveI will eat you all aliveI will eat you all alive

Are you hungry?Are you sick?Are you begging for a break?Are you sweet?Are you fresh?Are you strung up by the wrists?(Fois-gros style)We want the young blood.Are you fracturing?Are you torn at the seams?Would you do anything?Flea-bitten? Motheaten?We suck young blood.
Won't let the creeping ivyWon't let the nervous bury meOur veins are thinOur rivers poisoned
We want the sweet meats.We want the young blood.We suck young blood.We want the young blood.

In pitch dark I go walking in your landscape.Broken branches trip me as I speak.Just 'cause you feel it doesn't mean its there.Just 'cause you feel it doesn't mean its there.
There's always a sirenSinging you to shipwreck(Don't reach out, don't reach outDon't reach out, don't reach out)Steer away from these rocksWe'd be a walking disaster(Don't reach out, don't reach outDon't reach out, don't reach out)Just 'cause you feel it doesn't mean it's there.(There's someone on your shoulder)(There's someone on your shoulder)Just 'cause you feel it doesn't mean it's there.(There's someone on your shoulder)(There's someone on your shoulder)There there!
Why so green and lonely?And lonelyAnd lonely
Heaven sent you to meTo meTo me
We are accidentsWaiting waiting to happen.
