Hey you with the gun, your face like the sun Are you having fun? I'm packing my things as a blackbird sings To the setting sun 'Cause nothing good is stable, that was just a fable we were told By those afraid of growing old You think I'm lonely, but you don't even know me You're reaching for my laces and my belt so you can save me from myself And I suppose I should just stand down Go and wash my hands of this affair like it was never really there And I suppose I should cash out now As people go and do this all the time and I will be just fine But everywhere I go it stays the same I can't bear to speak your name I can serenade the shadows from your flame Until the next one comes We can lie and tell each other it was fun As we're burying each other with the other ones Look me in the eye, explain to me why we put ourselves through this And run each other dry time after time You tried to solve this crime within the time you thought was mine And only wound up being confused Songtexte But as the world burned down I ran across the sand to touch your hand And tell you everything would be alright, but we were terrified We both got high, you cried, I tried and people died, I couldn't leave your side Not even when I knew that I should So tell me it was more than just the photographs we took Tell me you were with me when I loved you 'til the bedrock shook Tell me it was more than just a phase Tell me you were with me at the end of days And everywhere I go it stays the same I can't bear to speak your name I can serenade the shadows from your flame Until the next one comes We can lie and tell each other it was fun As we're burying each other with the other ones And nothing you can say Can make it go away Aus Songtexte Mania
