5. Black & Blue
take a look at captain deadend
take a look at his shivering hands
take a look at his new girlfriend
but he's having fun that you don't understand.
we only see surfaces when we look around
when we think in two colours we belong in this town
where the dead and the undead walk the streets, couple and choose
he feels black and blue but I didn't mean to upset you
close your eyes and watch his shadow turn.
run your hands through your hair and feel your eyes begin to burn.
how can you love the source of all of your pain
when rape eyes are telling you that he's dreaming again
love! bleed! nails! cross! god! tree! man! lost!
Nowi'm thinking about adam and eve.
paradise is on ice, darkness, light, can't sleep at night
and you're waiting for a chance to please.
please? i thought you said you had the key.
