throwing a bone to the couch potato from the red light district hear the echo of a girl who's trying to keep tempo and the band with the tortured soul the band with the tortured soul she doesn't seem to notice the glass partition as serrated edges cut through malnutrition and it's government sponsored ammunition going for an all time low heading for the all time low then again they only talk in money then again hind sight's twenty-twenty they've got nothing to show if any one headache to many and it's two weeks to election day it's two weeks to election day seeing things clearly for the first time 'till the teargas rips apart the front lines losing her grip she takes her own life into an other's hands into each others' hands then again they only talk in money then again hind sight's twenty-twenty they've got nothing to show if any one headache to many and it's two weeks to election day it's two weeks to election day it's two weeks to election day you don't know just what to do now you don't know what to do who's gonna take the fall for you now? 'cause no-one's gonna take that fall no-ones gonna take that fall for you like book-ends they were breaking down the system brick by brick in the missionary position didn't know what was in store until it hit them into another life into each others' lives then again they only talk in money then again hind sight's twenty-twenty they've got nothing to show if any one headache to many and it's two weeks to election day it's two weeks to election day it's two weeks to election day

i was dreaming about you once again woke up on the wrong side of the bed tell myself that we could use the break i'm afraid we've made the same mistake and it's more like a nightmare when you come out of nowhere all that i can do is try to forget you and hope this all will soon come to an ending there's nothing left to say say it anyway i can't believe everything i'm missing and it's been so long it feels so wrong 18 stories down one more call and then i'll stop your memories now are better than they ever were there's nothing left to take away the pain smiling at the camera just the same and it feels like a nightmare when you come out of nowhere now all that i can do all that i can do is try to forget you and hope this all will soon come to an ending there's nothing left to say say it anyway i can't believe everything i'm missing and it's been so long it feels so wrong 18 stories down falling wondering if you're down there wondering if you're down there wondering if you're down
