Lyrics
I wish you lonely
if only for one day
so that you might see
routine for me
since the day I was born
Think of yourself only
of everything you demand or you want or you need
snd to hell, to hell! with everybody else
Turn the key slowly
remember how I can't sleep
(or, if ever I do, an earthquake couldn't agitate)
Tombs are full of fools
who gave their life upon command of
monarchy! oligarch!
head of state! potentate!
and now?
never coming back! never coming back!
Tombs are full of fools
who gave their life upon command of
romance gone wrong
the same old glue
never coming true!
never coming true!
Tombs are full of fools
who gave their life upon command of
heroin! heroin! heroin!
heroin! heroin! and?
never coming back!
never coming back!
I wish you lonely
like the last tracked humpback whale
chased by gunships from Bergen
but never giving in!
never giving in!
