there are ghosts haunting the embers
of our waning world
so sad and yearning and beautiful
living frightened behind red lights
letting moments slip
between shivering hands, so dissapointed
and the days collapse and are reborn
along with everything
and they walk fast and die slow
and never live a second

we are domesticated man
and we live for the queen
and we die never knowing what we could have been
so kiss hard draw blood
all is fair in love and war
this is a heartattack an attack of my heart
and the fire won't go out

sink your teeth into these sweet moments
before we lose all substance

despair ends tonight
we escape for the stars
write our farewells in blood
and forget all the scars

and i will never die
