When you came into my life, I was lost
And you took that shine to me
At what cost?
You recognised the smell
Human pain
Said, "I'd learn to love the chain"
It was
Shit, shit, shit
Battered
I caved in
My promise was clattered
Amazing stars from the drink
I made a promise and I killed
Shit, shit, shit
Battered
I live meretricious, you shattered
Amazing stars from the dreaming
I made a promise
When you said I taste like sleep
I was dead
When will you step in the room out of your head?
You said that I was bad
That was fine
When you said I could be good, I wouldn't have it
There's a certain kind of air
In the smoke
Must be some amount of truth
In the joke
For it to make you laugh
Ha-ha-ha
Teary faces know the craft
Shit, shit, shit
Battered
I caved in
My promise was clattered
Amazing stars from the drink
I made a promise and I killed
Shit, shit, shit
Battered
A whole life meretricious, you shattered
Amazing stars from the dreaming
I made a promise, oh we'll kill it
Shit, shit, shit
Battered
I caved in, my promise
Was clattered
Amazing stars from the drink
I made a promise
