Lyrics
so let s start the countdown
But falling short is inevitably written, scribbled on paper with traces of thought being oh
Scribbled on paper with traces of thought being oh, i m thinking about joining the rest of my friends
I m thinking about joining the rest of my friends, than trying to endure anymore
Three can keep a secret if two are dead, even when i know
I m thinking about joining the rest of my friends, we re playing life like a sport Mercury, i m thinking about joining the rest of my friends
We got exactly what we deserved, i m afraid i m gonna lose the war
I m afraid i m gonna lose the war, the stakes are high
we got exactly what we deserved
These battles are trying, another year Water, so let s start the countdown
transcending illusions of passion and hate
And i will still speak of love, it has lost its meaning, i m not fond of common endings
A bitter blessing bestowed, three can keep a secret if two are dead
These battles are trying, we ll betray our fathers for the way of the gun
Lucid and beautifully staged, transcending illusions of passion and hate
and our time in life is short
When you say goodbye i ll say goodnight, we ll be immune to the poisons
i have been patient
we ll be immune to the poisons
Lucid and beautifully staged, wide awake for the first time in days
You have been nothing but trouble but trouble dear, so let s start the countdown, i can taste the mercury in the water
so let s start the countdown
And i will still speak of love, i have been patient
wide awake for the first time in days
Wide awake for the first time in days, i have been patient MANHATTAN, i have been patient
to be the leader of an un-armed militia
i have been patient
Scribbled on paper with traces of thought being oh, my body aches
We ll betray our fathers for the way of the gun, three can keep a secret if two are dead, so let s start the countdown
The stakes are high, i m not fond of common endings Mercury, lucid and beautifully staged
A bitter blessing bestowed, and our time in life is short, it has lost its meaning
and our time in life is short
Another year, transcending illusions of passion and hate
Scribbled on paper with traces of thought being oh, my body aches, my body aches
I can taste the mercury in the water, scribbled on paper with traces of thought being oh MANHATTAN, and we can proclaim our lives
You have been nothing but trouble but trouble dear, lucid and beautifully staged
Transcending illusions of passion and hate, i have been patient, i m not fond of common endings
These battles are trying, than trying to endure anymore
And more pride than common men, we ll be gone before morning comes
My body aches, my body aches Mercury, wide awake for the first time in days
Wide awake for the first time in days, my body aches
And more pride than common men, i m thinking about joining the rest of my friends
We re playing life like a sport, transcending illusions of passion and hate, another year
I have been patient, the stakes are high
my body aches
