I'm the graveyard-shift of romantics
a magicians old trick
& i can tell you think that you've got it
but i am the "˜smoke'
& i'm the "˜mirror'
the eye of the storm before it knocks you over
good men die us
bad-boys hang our heads & hide
not afraid
we know the worlds too fucked to save
a dark alley"”
& a "wouldn't wanna run into you"
your white lighter, black-powder, bathtub & live fuse
the supernova's of superstars
you shoulda' told us we're the
v.2 of nothin' new
nothin' but a spoke on a wheel
without me it's nothin' but a wreck
jus' one way to live forever & baby your listenin' to it
so this is your rolled-down window
the warm breeze
a silly-song to make you think back on me
a dark alley"”
& a "wouldn't wanna run into you"
your white lighter, black-powder, bathtub & live fuse
the supernova's of superstars
you shoulda' told us we're
the v.2 of nothin' new
i'm a hart square in the headlights
world's goin' from dimly-lit to darkness
& now the color's leavin' me behind it's cool "˜cos i lead a grey life
