lyrics

I shook off the void
Like an old faded jacket
That face in the gloom
Was the face I had doomed
Would I give up my teeth
Or the skin of my knees
For a taste of a life in the sun

With you and all of your friends?
The truth will always bend in time

So here is mine:
I'll make you happy
Ever so happy
So long as you tell me
Will the clouds take the blame
When the night screams my name?

I'd lie to the Gods
In bare faced defiance
And I'll kneel by the light of your hair
In prayer
I'll shed all my skin
While a fire within
Burns a torch
With the heat of the sun

For you
And all of your friends
The truth will always bend in time

So here is mine:
I'll make you happy
Ever so happy
So long as you tell me
Will the clouds take the blame
When the night screams my name?

I'd buy you a ring
With the change in my pocket
But the richest of rags
Are still only rags
Yet for all that it's worth
I'd trade half the Earth
For a chance at a life in the sun

With you, my darling soon
I won't mean anything I do

So long as you tell me
I'll make you happy
Will the clouds take the blame
When the night screams my name?

my darling soon
I won't mean anything I do

So long as you tell me
I'll make you happy
