lyrics

It’s like the city is burning to the sound of all sin,
The stench of death in the evening and the burning of skin
When the pressure is on you must defuse, the bomb --- Defuse the bomb!
You are lost in the world

I never chose this path. Decisions I could've made.
I never thought to ask if there were other paths to take
Oh, please close the curtains, I just feel so worthless --- I feel unworthy!
I am lost in the world

Of bad thoughts and bad things --- hear alarm bells ring
I’ve been feeling negative, Darling and I can’t help but sing
Of bad thoughts and bad things --- feel the bad vibrations ---
Darker days are coming Sweetness, tomorrow will be here soon

With the tossing and turning of the things I forgot
And the things I’m still learning and the things I must not
Hey, don’t trust anyone --- know your enemies, son --- my son --- You are my son!
You are on view to the world

Between the idle and greedy, the straight and the true,
The poor and the needy, you will have to choose
Honesty is hard while covering your cards --- And your heart!
Hide them from the eyes of the world

Of bad thoughts and bad things --- hear alarm bells ring
I’ve been feeling negative, Darling and I can’t help but sing
Of bad thoughts and bad things --- feel the bad vibrations ---
Darker days are coming Sweetness, tomorrow will be here soon

Ah, yes.... the ink I bleed on these faint ruled lines
As my pen runs riot and then runs dry
Tells only of half-glimpsed scenes
But these are my thoughts; these are my dreams
I confuse them all with the life I’ve lived
And sing of things as I see fit
So you can try asking --- there isn’t always an answer to provide
I walk up and down this treble cleft
A piece of me in each note pressed
And maybe I was Eustace Grimm
But the fact remains that I’m not him
And if I was, I would never say
I’m just not honest in that way
It was just a feeling --- that was the feeling at the time…

Bad thoughts and bad things --- hear alarm bells ring
I’ve been feeling negative, Darling and I can’t help but sing
Of bad thoughts and bad things --- feel the bad vibrations ---
Darker days are coming Sweetness, tomorrow will be here soon

And yet the fever is easing, I’m awake once again
But the worry I’m feeling just won’t go away
Get it out of my throat --- bring the sponge and the soap --- Go get the hose!
I am naked and on view to the world
I am naked and on view to the world
I am naked and on view to the world
