Like a rock
Like a planet
Like a f**ing atom bomb
I'll remain unperturbed by the joy and the madness
That I encounter everywhere I turn
I've seen it all before
In book and magazines
Like a twitch before dying
Like a p**nographic scene
There's a flower behind the window
There's an ugly laughing man
Like a hummingbird in silence
Like the blood on the door
It's the generator
Oh yeah, oh yeah, like the blood on my door
Wash me clean and I will run
Until I reach the shore
I've known it all along
Like the bone under my skin
Like actors in a photograph
Like paper in the wind
There's a hammer by the window
There's a knife on the floor
Like turbines in darkness
Like the blood on my door
It's the generator
