|
Don't let the fear in |
|
Don't let the hatred through the door |
|
And the fever, like a spider, walk your skin |
|
Can you still hear him? |
|
Still screaming science at the screen |
|
While the doctors try to cover the sin |
|
Oh it's a mad world honey |
|
And this crazy little man keeps spinning it and spinning it again |
|
Don't let the fear in |
|
Don't keep your naked little heart, trapped, beating in the cage it's in |
|
We're just two cats sitting on a hot tin roof |
|
We're just two young hearts running down the backstreets like we never went to school |
|
We're just soldiers fighting in a war against our own advice |
|
We're just birds of paradise |
|
Beyond the white light |
|
You don't know if heavens in your mind |
|
And the devil is just a twinkle in your eye |
|
You've led a short life |
|
Short from the moment your were born |
|
To the moment that the sun filled the sky |
|
Remember long nights buddy? |
|
When we were kids and love was ours to find |
|
You've led a short life |
|
Not even Valium can' kill that k k k k kick inside |
|
We're just two cats sitting on a hot tin roof |
|
We're just two young hearts running down the backstreets like we never went to school |
|
We're just soldiers fighting in a war against our own advice |
|
We're just birds of paradise |
|
So hold on |
|
I know sometimes this crazy world can tear the flesh from our bones |
|
Please hold on |
|
And when sometimes you're not yourself be glad at least you're someone |
|
Old Soldier |
|
Lead us home |
|
We're just two cats sitting on a hot tin roof |
|
We're just two young hearts running down the backstreets like we never went to school |
|
We're just soldiers fighting in a war against our own advice |
|
We're just birds of paradise |
|
We're just birds of paradise |
|
We're just birds of paradise |
