He licks the paper, turns the page |
|
He writes the spoken word again |
|
Releases pools of un-trapped blood |
|
To camouflage what's understood |
|
Wrapped up in a golden throne |
|
He undresses overloads |
|
Walks quietly to a distant place |
|
Honest lies in washed out grace |
|
Oh, oh, oh, indicate we're locked in |
|
Oh, oh, oh, with the kings and queens |
|
We are the happiest pretenders |
|
And we are the happiest pretenders |
|
Dressed down towards the Tyne |
|
He chases evening's wonder whys |
|
Then misses hours time again |
|
Sweeps him underneath its wings |
|
Oh, oh, oh, indicate we're locked in |
|
Oh, oh, oh, with the kings and queens |
|
We are the happiest pretenders |
|
And we are the happiest pretenders |
|
And if they try to catch us out |
|
We'll chase 'em down again |
|
We're gonna chase them down |
|
'Cause we are the happiest pretenders |
|
He wipes the crystal from his eyes |
|
He hits the lights, then leaves them dry |
|
Undoes tomorrows unknown will |
|
Let's it slide, tastes the thrill |
|
He wipes the crystal from his eyes |
|
He hits the lights, then leaves them dry |
|
Undoes tomorrows unknown will |
|
Lets it slide, tastes the thrill |
|
Oh, 'cause we are the happiest pretenders |
|
And we are the happiest pretenders |
|
And if they try to catch us out |
|
We'll chase them down again |
|
We're gonna chase them down |
|
'Cause we are the happiest pretenders |
|
He wipes the crystal from his eyes |
|
He hits the lights and leaves them dry |
|
Undoes tomorrows unknown will |
|
Lets it slide, tastes the thrill |
