The secret’s in the water You know, I read somewhere our dying days were meant for this In a post card or a letter Addressed to everyone whose dying days were meant for this
A catatonic savior dreams while it’s said he’s got nothing to offer The cytosine resistance breeds with the congressman’s only daughter Well don’t explain it, don’t intrigue them now May the cursed choke on their own rotten luck
A failure on a doorstep A kid so sick, you’d never comfort him, you never could Well I wish I was an angel I’d disappear before I ever felt this torn again
A catatonic savior sleeps as it’s said he’s got nothing to offer The cytosine resistance bleeds as the fields go up in the slaughter Well don’t explain it, don’t intrigue them now The shortest straw will make everything right Don’t explain it, don’t intrigue them now Turn out the lights before you say goodnight
