Time flies, patiently lying awake I hold on
Trying to wake up the civil ghost
Imitator, lord and my savior
Tell me to wait and to love thy traitor
Killing the noise and the cars
And the voice on the radio cries for an end to the lies
Great imitator, my lord and my savior
Do me a favor, do me a favor
Send me a sign that I'll be alive
By the time, by the time I'm no longer alive
The government is watching me
Their planes circle my house
I can't sleep at night, anymore
They got my heart wired to blow when it slows
I can't use my legs
I can't even feel them
It goes on and on and on forever
The drunks all pour out into the street
The door gets shut and the lights cut out
It's just you and me, my dear, alone in a kiss
You are the siren and I am the ship
I will eat your soul
Until my heart is full
It goes on and on and on forever
To be happy is to be naive
To be in love is to be asleep at the wheel
But don't you worry, oh god no
'Cause I won't be the first to say I love you
No, wait
Cause I'm not done with you yet
No, I'm not done with you yet
Don't walk away
