Lyrics
Tales abound
Told about…you
Body numb
Fingers around…you
A line’s been crossed
Shorting out…you
It’s hard to stop
With just one, two…
Reading of your mind
As you walk on by
Fear not…
I would not steer you wrong
I’m barely holding on
Wheels spun…
Your nature loads the gun
My nurture pulls and tugs
The trigger…
What’s so special ‘bout
The madness that I’ve got
Fun times…
CHORUS
Picture slowed burns through
Leaving only blue
You can tell the truth
Got some thorns, don’t you?
A near miss rubbing off
All luck that I’ve got
All gone…
Well come out play with us
You’ll feel so much better
How true…
No one will ever know
The unnameable
You were…
There’s a reason for
The seven stars no more
Blacked out…
CHORUS
Picture slowed burns through
Leaving only blue
You can tell the truth
Got some thorns, don’t you?
A life without applause
Is no life at all
House of ill repute
Within your walls I’m warm
