We walked in the cold air Freezing breath on a window pane, lying and waiting A man in the dark in a picture frame so mystic and soulful A voice reaching out in a piercing cry, it stays with you until The feeling has gone, only you and I, it means nothing to me This means nothing to me Oh, Vienna The music is weaving Haunting notes, pizzicato strings, the rhythm is calling Alone in the night as the daylight brings a cool empty silence The warmth of your hand and a cold grey sky, it fades to the distance The image has gone, only you and I, it means nothing to me This means nothing to me Oh, Vienna This means nothing to me This means nothing to me Oh, Vienna

Sleepwalk Sleepwalk Sleepwalk Rolling and falling I'm choking and calling Name after name after name Sleepwalk Sleepwalk Sleepwalk Naked and bleeding The streetlights stray by me Hurting my eyes with their glare Sleepwalk Sleepwalk Sleepwalk Helplessly breaking Exchanging my faces Destined, we had to collide Sleepwalk! Taut on the outside I'm crumpling and crawling Watching the day drag away Spiraling deeper I can't feel my fingers Grip round my throat as I dream Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream Sleepwalk Sleepwalk Sleepwalk Sleepwalk Sleepwalk Sleepwalk Sleepwalk Sleepwalk Sleepwalk Sleepwalk Sleepwalk

My sex Waits for me Like a mongrel waits Downwind on a tight rope leash My sex Is a fragile acrobat Sometimes I'm a novocaine shot Sometimes I'm an Automat My sex Is often solo Sometimes it short circuits then Sometimes it's a golden glow My sex Is invested in Suburban photographs Skyscraper shadows on a car crash overpass My sex Is savage, tender It wears no future faces Owns just random gender My sex Has a wanting wardrobe I still explore Of all the bodies I knew And those I want to know My sex Is a spark of electro-flesh Leased from the tick of time And geared for synchromesh My sex Is an image lost in faded films A neon outline on a high-rise overspill My sex My sex

Somehow we drifted off too far Communicate like distant stars Splintered voices down the phone The sunlit dust, the smell of roses drifts, oh no Someone waits behind the door Hiroshima Mon Amour Riding inter-city trains Dressed in European gray Riding out to echo beach A million memories in the trees and sands, oh no How can I ever let them go? Hiroshima Mon Amour Meet beneath the autumn lake Where only echoes penetrate Walk through Polaroids of the past Future's fused like shattered glass, the sun's so low Turns our silhouettes to gold Hiroshima Mon Amour
