Love is blindness I don't want to see Won't you wrap the night Around me? Oh my heart Love is blindness In a parked car In a crowded street You see your love Made complete Thread is ripping The knot is slipping Love is blindness Love is clockworks And cold steel Fingers too numb to feel Squeeze the handle Blow out the candle Love is blindness Love is blindness I don't want to see Won't you wrap the night Around me? Oh my love Blindness A little death Without mourning No call And no warning Baby, a dangerous idea That almost makes sense Love is drowning In a deep well All the secrets And no one to tell Take the money Honey Blindness Love is blindness I don't want to see Won't you wrap the night Around me? Oh my love Blindness

Send us a blindfold Send us a blade Tell the survivors "Help is on the way" I was a blind fool Never complained All the survivors Singing in the rain I was the one with The world at my feet Got us a battle Leave it up to me Find us a trapdoor Find us a plane Tell the survivors "Help is on the way" I was a blind fool Who never complained All the survivors Singing in the rain I was the one with The world at my feet Got us a battle Leave it up to me What it is and where it stops Nobody knows You gave me a life I never chose I wanna leave but the world Won't let me go Wanna leave but the world Won't let me go What it is and where it stops Nobody knows You gave me a life I never chose I wanna leave but the world Won't let me go Wanna leave but the world Won't let me go What it is and where it stops Nobody knows You gave me a life I never chose I wanna leave but the world Won't let me go Wanna leave but the world Won't let me go What it is and where it stops Nobody knows You gave me a life I never chose I was the one with The world at my feet Got us a battle Leave it up to me Leave it up to me Leave it up to me

They used to put flowers in gun barrels I tried it once and got my face maced And I feel just like a little girl facing a mountain of trolls Armed with only my clothes and my words Voluntary slavery to the debt machine Pirates and politicians are the same thing "Give me your money and you will be saved" You bought your place in heaven don't you wish you were dead? Mama What have you left behind for me? Mama What have you left behind for me? Mama What did you leave behind? I don't want it No There is no point in going back to the sea All the fish are dead we've got a hit on radioactivity Pollution everywhere I can't breathe the goddam air What have you left behind for me? Mama

Alex was my first best friend "Gonna see the world," is what he always said And I begged him, "Take me with you" Alex played guitar and I sang We were gonna be in a rock 'n roll band Dreaming was the only way out Small town and alcohol Our parents sold their goddam souls And we were so angry A single tear from his blue eye As he looked at me and he said goodbye I promised I would never forget Alex said to his dad, "If you ever lay your hands on my mom again, I swear I will kill you, man" Alex came home through the kitchen door Found his mom lying on the floor Then he grabbed that knife His lawyer claimed self-defense But Alex never showed any signs of regret So the judge he said "life" A single tear from his blue eye As he looked at me and he said goodbye I promised I would never forget How we used to ride our bikes down to the lake Write songs about the love we'd make Watch the fire burn deep against the cold We promised right then to never grow old The way the starlight how it hit the waves Just like diamonds shining in a miner's cave We danced naked with no regrets I promised I would never forget

She came in from the desert on a sunny afternoon The devil was among us she was right here in this room And you could cut the air with a knife Drive a stake through her heart But no one is getting out of here Not alive My revolution is in disconclusion Allegations of hope There's no room for people like you and me here We're devilish folk He came in from the ocean with his big green eyes He couldn't stop pretending that he had seen the light But the truth is as bright as the moon You could feel the tension in this room And I would be the first to admit That a broken soul cannot be fixed My revolution is in disconclusion Allegations of hope There's no room for people like you and me here We're devilish folk

Once I was broken You didn't know what to say But just by being there You made it somehow ok I used to turn off the lights And listen to you pray As you begged for peace of mind I just hoped you would stay But forever is coming It's coming to its end Forever is just a dream I had Forever is coming It's coming to its end Forever is just a dream I had I used to be a victim Of cruel hypocrisy You showed me how wrong This world could be And as I stood there staring Straight into the fire My heart was melting In a cool desire Before you judge another Take a look at you're soul Have you yourself become Another brick in the wall Forever is coming It's coming to its end Forever is just a dream I had Peace ain't coming It ain't coming to our beds Peace is just a dream I had Some dream I had
