lyrics

Man stands
Desolate
Lonely as a cloud
All his far-flung fantasies gone
When they ripped it out
When they ripped it out

Climb the tallest tree
Watch the bloody Mary sunset
Cascade across the city
Where hope has been switched off
Like a fucking television,
You’re still out there
I don't know where
But it’s killing me
Every second it's killing me
But behind the forced smile
I was only flesh and bone to you
And I will never walk up those stairs again
And I will never walk up those stairs again

We could go anywhere
Even the stars
The only living boy
And only living girl

And I will always be haunted by that moment
Woke up and she was gone
I'm not angry
I'm just sad
Cannot stand this planet
When I was a kid I used to think everything would be ok
Now I walk down the street
I want to chop the head off every person I see
If this is it
If this all there is
I don't want to play anymore
The bandstand burns tonight
And I'm going up with it

Don’t believe in waking up each day
Don’t believe in playing this game
Don’t believe the written prophecies
Don’t believe in my own destiny
Don’t believe in miracles
Strange things just happen
There are no such things just happen
There’s no such thing as miracles
But I’ll walk up those stairs again

We could go anywhere
Even the stars
The only living boy
And only living girl

We could be Adam and eve
Rulers of the earth
When I was in your arms
The whole wide world melted away
