  • Come on baby do you think it's good to feel
    Like I'm lying here swimming in memories
    I fear God because everything dies babe
    Got a gun in the back of my car
    A spasm of good sense is making my eye twitch
    I've had enough of all your consolation

    I'm drowning caught in a shit tide
    Tape my face to the inside of love
    Nothing to eat but fears in the back seat
    Well I've met God and he had nothing to say to me

    I pray to God that you're right before my eyes
    Bathed in white light with halos in your eyes

    Don't wanna waste no more time
    Time's what we don't have
    Everywhere I look someone dies
    Wonder when it's my turn

    How well do you know me?
    Leave an open door, what you looking for
    Babe when you come down?
    I built a time machine to escape from
    All the pain in the back of my car
    Living's a problem because everything dies babe
    Save yourself you're not too far away

    I pray to God that you're right before my eyes
    Bathed in white light with halos in your eyes

    Don't wanna waste no more time
    Time's what we don't have
    Everywhere I look someone dies
    Wonder when it's my turn Writer/s: SIMON ALEXANDER NEIL
