lyrics

A black mirror and a bottle of gin
Empty on the bedroom floor
There’s still music bleeding into the room
And an endless banging at the door

Are you in love with the common features?
Just between you and I
These are things that nobody teaches:
How to hold onto the truth in a lie

By the starlight and moonbeams,
As fingers trace the hems of sweet dreams,
Are you dying to live but feeling more dead than alive?

St Anthony is lost in the woods
He has no wi-fi or reception
A figure lurking in the shadows draws near
With an offer of a shot at redemption

Are you in love with the modern features –
Dancing on the edge of a knife?
These are heights that nobody reaches:
How do you hold onto the good things in life?

By the starlight and moonbeams,
As fingers trace the hems of sweet dreams,
Are you dying to live but feeling more dead than alive?

A thousand kisses for a thousand lies
A thousand more ways that the heart slowly dies
A breathless morning neath the sweaty sheets
Listen to the thump, thumping of heartbeats

A thousand kisses for a thousand lies
A thousand more ways that the heart slowly dies
A breathless morning neath the sweaty sheets
Oh, listen to the thump, thumping of heartbeats

And a thousand sighs
A thousand sighs
Yeah, a thousand sighs
A thousand sighs
