I live for the stuff that matters. And I build on the things I know. . But she turns my world upside-down. Get a paper hat for a crown. I'm a backward, nowhere shanty town.
Can't tell the end from the start. But I know how it will be. I'm gonna hijack your heart. You'll belong to me. . The furthest thing from your mind. But you can't see what I see.
Listen. To the voice that calls. From the edge of sleep. Down the hall. No breath, no lying lips. No heartbeat, no fingertips. . She's invisible. Does not exist.
Sun is gone, moon is a halo. Candle stars flicker and fade. In the dark, we're getting closer. Feel the world falling away. . Transport of delight. Drive me out of my mind.
When the day breaks and falls apart. That's my fanfare, my calling card. A run of bad luck, darkness at noon. I don't need the password to get to you.
Struck by the sight. I suppose I was hypnotized. I took a hint. And built it all up in my mind. . I thought we were dealing. In diamonds and pearls. Now the sparkle is gone.
I must have had a nightmare. 'Cause I'm not seeing straight. The shadows creep and slide. The strangest thoughts. Go through my head. Outside the traffic lights.
This may come as a surprise. But I've got x-ray eyes. And I can see the skull. Beneath the skin. Though you do not realize. I can read what's in your mind.
When it's dark outside and you're all alone. And your peace of mind is all gone. When duty calls and he takes the car. And you feel the shakes coming on.
