| I stood there beside myself, | |
| Thinking hard about the weather | |
| Then came by a friend of mine | |
| Suggested we go out together | |
| Then I knew it from the start: | |
| This friend of mine would fall apart | |
| Pretending not to see his gun, | |
| I said "let's go out and have some fun" | |
| I know, you know, you believe in a land of love | |
| I know, you know, we believe in a land of love | |
| I have always thought about | |
| Staying here and going out | |
| Tonight I should have stayed at home, | |
| Playing with my pleasure zone | |
| He has always been so strange, | |
| I'd often thought he was deranged | |
| Pretending not to see his gun, | |
| I said "let's go out and have some fun" | |
| I know, you know, we believe in a land of love | |
| I know, you know, we believe in a land of love | |
| When you are alone at night | |
| You search yourself for all the things | |
| That you believe are right | |
| If you give it all away | |
| You throw away your only chance to be here today | |
| Then a fight breaks out on your street | |
| You lose another broken heart in a land of meat | |
| My friend, he took his final breath | |
| Now I know the perfect kiss is the kiss of death |
