Safety In Numbness
Got glue in your feathersWhat brought you to this?A flightless bird surrounded byRed handed kidsIn their borrowed black sheep's clothesNow everybody's in on the jokeSo practice your boredomLook a thousand times removedCause only a freak would singIn a crowded waiting roomThey would turn you out in the coldBecause everybody's in on the jokeAre you missing a strangerThat you might have loved?Do you feel that there's somethingYou don't feel enough?There's a perfectly good poisonFor the perfectly numbIf you want someBut naming the feelingIt just, it kills the charadeAnd if flowers should bloomUpon your wallpaper faceSongtexteIt will follow you everywhere you goBecause everybody's in on the jokeDesire only burns And envy's always greenA mind can only raceAnd a heart, it can only beatThere's these towering neon signsWe must upholdTo keep out the blacknessAnd run with the blueNow only a fool would singAs if he's telling the truthCould you swallow downThat lump in your throat?Because everybody's in on the jokeAre you missing a stranger That you might have loved?Do you feel that there's somethingYou don't feel enough?There's a perfectly good poison....Are you missing a strangerThat you might have loved?Do you feel that there's somethingYou don't feel enough?There's a perfectly good poisonFor the perfectly numbIf you want some Aus Songtexte Mania
