|
First I shut down the stars |
|
Because you said they ruled us. |
|
Then I took out Mars, |
|
He was the cruelest. |
|
His lover followed suit, |
|
By way of suicide. |
|
The others stood there silent, |
|
As I dealt out peace of mind. |
|
Shut me up, |
|
Shut me down, |
|
Try me if you can. |
|
My love, I'll show you nothing |
|
I'm a misanthropic man. |
|
This is the journey, |
|
To the edge of the night, |
|
I've got no companions |
|
Only Celine on my side. |
|
I don't need nothing from no-one |
|
The needle's in the red, |
|
Nothing to lose, |
|
Everything's dead |
|
Shut me up, |
|
Shut me down, |
|
Stop me if you can. |
|
My love, I'll tell you nothing |
|
I'm a misanthropic man. |
|
The sky is empty / silent, |
|
The Earth still as stone, |
|
So nothing stands above me, |
|
Now I can sleep alone. |
