Lyrics
Fuck the world, you said it quiet
No one could hear you, no one but me
Cynical, you can't deny it
You don't want to win this war 'cause you don't want the peace
Armistice, we never tried it
You're the soldier, I'm police
Listen, baby, we can't deny it
You don't want to win this war 'cause you don't want the peace
The word was weaponized as soon as it had passed your lips
I am a gentleman, I refuse to show my gentleness
Fuck around and find out, the angry child recites this every day
The universe will pry out, the truth which is you've got nothin' to say
In dreams, ice cream piano, I softly reach the high note
The world don't recognize a singer who won't sing
You talk of Serbians, whisper Kosovar Albanians
The boy's Romanian, third generation Transylvanian
I see the vampires walkin', don't be gripped by fear, you aren't next
We're all the sons and daughters of vampires who drained the old world's necks
In dreams, ice cream piano, I softly reach the high note
The world don't recognize a singer who won't sing
In dreams, ice cream piano, I softly reach the high note
The world don't recognize a singer who won't sing
