  • You don't know
    I sing these songs
    About you
    You don't know the pseudonyms
    I assume
    You don't know the pseudonyms
    I assume
    For you

    Are you happier now?
    That the Gods are dying
    Or do you dream of
    Heston with an omniscient beard
    You should be happier now
    With no one to pray to
    Or would you love to
    Break your knees from begging and praying?

    Bite hard
    Well its a broken smile
    Breaking their hearts and breaking their minds
    Bite hard
    Well it's a five on five
    Your engine's alive, and we ride together
    Bite hard
    (Bite hard)

    I may be lonelier now
    But I'm happy alone, honest
    Ain't lonely alone (oh)
    What would we talk about anyway
    No, I'd never resort to kissing your photo
    Honest
    I just had to see
    How the chemicals taste there, honey

    Bite hard
    Well its a broken smile
    Breaking their hearts and breaking their minds
    Bite hard
    Well it's a five on five
    Your engine's alive, and we ride together
    We ride together
    We die together

    (Ah)
    Bite hard
    (Ah)
    Bite hard
    (Ah)
    Bite hard

    Well I never
    No, I never
    No, I never
    No, I never
    I just had to
    I just had to
    I just had to see now, honey

    Bite hard
    Well its a broken smile
    Breaking their hearts and breaking their minds
    Bite hard
    Well it's a five on five
    Your engine's alive, and we ride together
    We ride together
    We die together Writer/s: Alexander Paul Kapranos Huntley, Nicholas John McCarthy, Paul Robert Thompson, Robert Hardy
