Now you know all my lies
Well, they’ve always been there
Worse than the crime itself are those bare corpses
You came totally out of the blue
With all your nights and days
Hooked in the eye we bleed following your movements
But carrying all ideas of the world
I wanna make sure that despite all desire you feel alive
They say it’s our animal side
But I don’t figure it’s a matter of our species conservation
I just want you
“We wanna show you a life that, boy, you will never ever get
Can I buy you a drink so we whisper (lies)
Then we could dance and adore me in this fancy disguise”
While I cannot escape
You seem to have something else in mind
From now on: personal decisions
Separately attached
Hope you know how to deal with your own freedom
Now you know all my lies
But the world’s still the same
True regrets are just sighs
Of religious despair
“Still there, humble boy?
I see you will never understand
Give me an open-eyed kiss so you can still flirt around
Then you will dance
And we’ll speculate
“What does he have under his skirt?”
Wrap yourself in those sheets and get out! Right now!
