We sleep together while all around us people kill each other where they lieThey lie together till they find someone betterTry and negotiate that's loads in mindsBut I just can't credit that type of effortFor a piece of nothing on the edge of a knifeSlices, you're so thin, you dry like sheets in the windHold a candle behind, through you see the lightI want this song I can sing foreverI don't care for structure just to know it's mineI'd hate to see this thingI'd hate to see this thingWe've developed, you've become your burdenAll my waste of timeMy waste of timeThe afternoon can bring with it shallow moodsBut I'd jump a harbour wall to clear your mindI quarter the yearsYou drop the clockThe sails to wet clearI'll look for eavesYou map the stars in the nightAnd history tells usSome worlds we'll learn nothing ofThen retrospect becomes a shackle of timeOn the ankles of a soulIn the future we trustWe cross our fingers like some kids tell the liesI want this song I can sing foreverI don't care for structure just to know it's mineI'd hate to see this thing we've developedYou've become your burden all my waste of timeI want to know that I know what I'm talking aboutUntil I do all the more see whyBut when I'm sure that I know what I'm talking aboutI'll take your burden if you'll say it's mineBut say it's mineSay it's mineYou say it's mine
