“Fuck the world”

You said it quiet

No one could hear you

No one but me

Cynical, you can’t deny it

You don’t want to win this war

Cuz you don’t want the peace

Armistice, we never tried it

You’re a soldier

I’m police

Listen, baby

We can‘t deny it

You don’t want to win this war

Cuz you don’t want the peace

The word was weaponized

As soon as it had passed your lips

I am a gentle man

I refuse to show my gentleness

“Fuck around and find out”

The angry child recites this every day

The universe will pry out

The truth which is you’ve got nothing to say

CHORUS:

In dreams, I scream piano

I softly reach the high note

The world don’t recognize

A singer who won’t sing

You talk of Serbians

Whisper Kosovar Albanians

The boy’s Romanian

Third-generation Transylvanian

I see the vampires walking

Don’t be gripped by fear

You aren’t next

We’re all the sons and daughters

Of vampires who drained the old world’s necks

CHORUS
