lyrics
not whole
not wholly
separate but syncopated
single in our nature
and because of the times
not a word was said when the lights came on
or a glance given pause
at the cost of our desired wrongs
it's second nature to love you
it's first to die
and we were killed upon waking
killed upon waking to the life
we weren't prepared to live
but rebelled to realize
we were killed upon the pavement
bonnie we're immortalized in
blood and cold cold love
we were still young
when the radio lights came on
elton's on the air
no fair dear that we were still here
in the absence of everything
abstain from fear
and if i cry in your arms
it's just some other shit
just some other shit
just some other things that i've been dealing with
i'd die in your arms
bury me while playing this
bury me saying
"you were all i ever needed"
and hold me like we're dying from
the liquor that we drank down in hotel rooms
to feel warm in cold love
what's harder
harder to say?
that you want me to stay
that you want me stay
unchanged for you?
chained to a lie
we're the same you and i
we're the same
not the same we hurt differently
but consistent in our pain
equal and equidistant in the way we
laugh to lay bear
the weight of our cold love affair
recalling the days where we were
we weren't
we were
wrong for the papers
wrong for the dinner tables
of the inner rings
of the rich and famous anything's
it's gone, not bad
just gone
my bad, just wrong
we had and we had
and we were then in
blood and cold cold love
we were still young
when the radio lights came on
elton's on the air
no fair dear that we were still here
in the absence of everything
abstain from fear
if i cry in your arms
it's just some other shit
just just some other shit
just some other things that i've been dealing with
i'd die in your arms
bury me while playing this
bury me saying
"you were all i ever needed"
and hold me like we're dying from
the liquor that we drank down in hotel rooms
to feel warm
what's harder
harder to say?
that you want me to stay
that you want me stay
unchanged for you?
chained to a lie
we're the same you and i
we're the same
what's harder
harder to fake?
that you want me to stay
that you want me stay
the same for you?
chained to a lie
who's to blame?
let it die
we're the same
in blood and cold cold love
we were still young
when the radio lights came on
elton's on the air
