Short of breath she tells me about the new order
while kicking the crap out of the bar's vending machine
she says that the cyber revolution and absolutely everything is artificial
and I just can't get myself to tell her "look, your b**bs are showing"
pick me up,
turn me inside out,
turn me upside down can't you see I'm empty?,
pick me up
throw me down, kick me all around,
can't you see I'm empty?
I'm in a really deep conversation with the pacifist across from me
And I can't hear a single word he's saying to me,
And like an angel on his shoulder,
there's a girl on the dance-floor
Dancing with the devil on his other shoulder
As I peacefully k** another pawn-innocent cigarette
pick me up,
turn me inside out,
turn me upside down can't you see I'm empty?,
pick me up
throw me down, kick me all around,
can't you see I'm empty?
I'm empty....
There's a guy to my right
dragging at his cigarette like he's trying to remember where exactly he lost his mind
and desperately aiming at an ashtray he misses completely and burns a hole in my evening wear
I tell him "its fine", I tell him "hey you know, it happens"
Only later to see him set fire to the pacifist's big, big hair
pick me up,
turn me inside out,
turn me upside down can't you see I'm empty?,
pick me up
throw me down, kick me all around,
can't you see I'm empty?
And on stage there's a girl screaming her beefed up songs
with the faked aggression of a vegetarian
And their six string anorexic is doing his backing vocals
like he's giving a demon head
And I'm just sitting in the corner trying to remember one single thing
the scorched pacifist had said
I'm in a corner I,
I got another bottle holding the top,
and I'm s**ing it dry,
seems we've been sitting forever
getting empty together,
my bottle and I
Now this ain't no holy spirit,
and it sure ain't much of a high
Yes I guess my friend at best is a malicious crutch
cos how can one man drink so much
and still be too dry... too dry to cry?
pick me up,
turn me inside out,
turn me upside down can't you see I'm empty?,
pick me up
throw me down, kick me all around,
can't you see I'm empty?
pick me up,
turn me inside out,
turn me upside down can't you see I'm empty?,
pick me up
throw me down, kick me all around,
can't you see I'm empty?
