each night i lay beneath the earth i am tired of feeling powerless with no edge and no reflected light there is something in the way of us don t cry now all the wheels will turn there ll be bluebirds over you and i with black brains they ll come to save our lives as our flesh becomes electrified we sleep in pairs just waiting can you take me away can you stop with the lies are you desperate yes i think i m desperate what s my best bet on your deathbed yes i m on my last legs then you re desperate blaze on me bird of paradise don t be fearful don t you close your eyes oh sister keep the hope alive we can run before they realise i m asking you to heal me can you take me away can you stop with the lies are you desperate yes i think i m desperate what s my best bet on your deathbed yes i m on my last legs then you re desperate can you take me away can you stop with the lies
