So the light now is my weapon
Like a bush dried, withered in the sun
With a spark, I'll go up in flames.
I'd lay my gun down, but they're to small to see
It's kinda cute how I pretend to be
Everything but the instrument I am
Peace and happiness
So let it enfold you.
A birth to life is what I'm after
My first name won't be my last one
Let the light just drip into your eyes
So it's true, my words are contrived
I tell lies just to get into your mind
I'm as fake as a winner's smile.
This mask of glass is what I choose to wear
So I won't ever have that need to bear
To tell the truth to anyone but me.
Peace and happiness
So let it enfold you.
A birth to life is what I'm after
My first name won't be my last one
Let the light just drip into your eyes.
And I, and I
Am dead, am dead
Your eyes, your eyes
Are light!
I'm just a bad actor
Stuck with a shitty script
All of my lines are cheap
And the cast is weak
There was no music for
The first time I got kissed
There was no femme fatale
My mistress wasn't rich
So I've been formatted
To fit your TV screen
The film went straight to tape
I'll bow out quietly
So quietly, so quietly
Please do this now, I beg
Duct tape my arms and leg
Throw me into the sea
Please take me, please take me (x2)
Now watch the waves eat me
Setting my cold heart free
I'll wash ashore in weeks
You can't save me
(Can't save me)
Now watch the waves eat me
Setting my cold heart free
I'll wash ashore in weeks
You can't save me
(Can't save me)
You can't save me now.
