Now that the sky is broken I can see the light come shining in Won’t you stay til this shadow passes over my pyramid Nothing can be untrue if you tell people it isn’t I’ve been smiling someone else’s smile I’ve been clenching someone else’s fist I’ve been singing someone else’s song Threw my spear in someone else’s mist One day you’ll wake up wake up wake up And you’ll find you’re not invincible at all But you still walk out into bright lights Every heart is beating for you Now that it’s you’re birthday you’re the king of stolen diamonds That’s what you are I’m going to keep on telling myself that until the earth goes flat Inside each mirror you will find a thousand silver daggers sheathed Inside each broken window you will find a thousand sword points Inside each TV screen there lies a whole domain of fuckery I’ve been staring into strangers’ windows I’ve been throwing glass into the sea I’ve been cutting someone else’s hair I’ve been sweeping up the house of thieves Songtexte One day you’ll wake up wake up wake up And you’ll find you’re not invincible at all But you still walk out into bright lights Every heart is beating for you Now that it’s you’re birthday you’re the king of stolen diamonds That’s what you are I’m going to keep on telling myself that until the earth goes flat I used to think that I was psychic now I don’t remember why Now all the silver threads from all the spiderwebs are flickering in the sky Why did you smash your bourbon on the rocks across the rocks across the road outside? I’ve been smiling someone else’s smile I’ve been clenching someone else’s fist I’ve been singing someone else’s song Threw my spear in someone else’s mist One day you’ll wake up wake up wake up And you’ll find you’re not invincible at all But you still walk out into bright lights Every heart is beating for you Now that it’s you’re birthday you’re the king of stolen diamonds That’s what you are Aus Songtexte Mania
