lyrics

There’s a fire in my temple.
It’s burning down my shelter.
There’s a fire in my shelter.
I dare not enter.

We’ve wasted years of youth to enjoy the sweetest fruits.
Now only if I was shown, only if I had known,
What was to become, come on everyone.
We’ve wasted years of youth to enjoy the sweetest fruits,
I am the blister on your thumb.
The cold sore on your tongue.
The cancer in your lung.
The bullets in your gun.

These are the days of our lives.
We’re sitting side by side, watching each other die.
Another burning breath, another crying eye.


His pocket's empty, so instead he's got a fistful.
He’s feeling ugly but he’s looking pretty like a pistol.
His aim is steady, but you made him wear a blindfold.
So if he misses now it’s your fault.

There’s a fire in my temple.

It’s burning down my shelter.
There’s a fire in my shelter.
I dare not enter.

In a world where you’re not the centre, you’ll find that it’s a lesson.
Too many problems for me to mention, stuck in regression.

Oh won’t you be my magnum opus?
I need a demon to set me free.
As you can see, I’m fucking hopeless.
And my my words, they mean nothing.

Flew too close to the sun and burned my wings.
Falling for a heavenly being.
