I fled through mist the instant that I saw The bruises on the inside of your face Those purple blotches showed through your translucent skin You pa**ed it off as a trick of the light Not for the first time And certainly not the last The pessimists denied eternal d**h And the hospital-born Worried about the law Resisted the urge to contradict Anything When it weighs too much Think of it as seven times the weight But when it costs too much Consider it but don't come to me for aid I'll be in debt to all this legal jargon These facts and these figures You're forcing me to go on Through the pain and fear of knowing The emptiness But never showing When it weighs too much Think of it as seven times the weight But when it hurts too much Consider it but don't come to me for aid The lucky child The lucky child is learning fast Our body count will never last But the sentimental k**ing lasts forever Forever I've got a medic for you Something it drives me to do Why don't you know that the air is filled with millions of thoughts The air is filled with holiness and badness The air is filled with thoughts of what's bad and what's good The air is filled with millions of voices The heart of the stone and the heart of the one When it weighs too much Think of it as seven times the weight But when we talk too much Consider it a part of my escape The lucky child is learning fast Our body count will never last But the sentimental k**ing lasts forever Forever The walls of Rome are tumbling down So functional They make no sound But the sentimental building stands Forever Together Forever
