I'm blue and bruised

From the blackened truth

I felt my heart stop

And when I'm dead

There's nothing left to prove



I want to breath so that I can see

I don't choke on total need

And love and death are like

A king and queen

Held together naturally



Slow down

This new disease with open arms

And why frown

When people everywhere are going down



I blew the scene like an old memory

Cos I've never heard such stupid things

And love and death are always meant to be

To the end it's naturally



Slow down

This new disease with open arms

And why frown

When people everywhere are going down another year has gone

Another day that follows

Still in my dreams I'm dying



I'm blue and bruised

From the blackened truth

I felt my heart stop

And when I'm dead

There's nothing left to prove



Slow down

This new disease with open arms

And why frown

When people everywhere are going down
