|
Dethroning the dream |
|
Of neon nights in rain |
|
I stripped from the skin |
|
But kept it in |
|
Same remains the same |
|
Cold sheets and mattress stains |
|
There's no telling you |
|
To want me too |
|
You miss the disco lights |
|
Its all pleather now |
|
A synthetic world without end |
|
Sheds a tear of plastic deception |
|
The last dance |
|
With the rain |
|
On the nod |
|
On the train |
|
Hunting the haunted with shame |
|
I will remember your name |
|
I had hoped my love alone could outlive my past |
|
I had hoped a to thread the black hole |
|
With no strings attached |
|
Thorn to finger again |
|
A head in a strange hand |
|
I prayed for some truth |
|
'Til my face turned blue |
|
To fill the void between |
|
Your youth and lust |
|
You'll cross the bridge between |
|
My knives and trust |
|
You miss the neon lights |
|
It's all plastic now |
|
A sympathetic world without end |
|
Hums a hymn of misdirection |
|
The last dance |
|
With the rain |
|
On the nod |
|
On the train |
|
Hunting the haunted with shame |
|
I will remember your name |
|
I had hoped my love alone could outlive my past |
|
I had a to thread the black hole |
|
With no strings attached |
