"A Million & One New Ways To Die" lyrics

"A Million & One New Ways To Die"

Down in the tube
Red lights are where you are
Stop signs and air guitars
I'll take a train for your chain reaction
I didn't lose
I don't know where to start
Why am I caked in my mud, piss and blood?
Know that you love me

I want you still
I'm for the real
Hard times are breaking up
Ran around the wheel
How does it feel
Now that you're waking up?

Lies cruel to being kind
Victim no way
And I don't wanna make you mine
Cos I was always high
Wished it all away
You and I made
A million and one ways to die

And now with the blues
I fear I'm way too far
Long nights, the hate mirage
Placate the ache of hearts
The main attraction
No I didn't choose
I guess that's the way things are
I'll take the hate from love, break in stuff
But know that you owe me

I want you still
I'm for the real
Hard times are breaking up
Ran around the wheel
How does it feel
Now that you're waking up?

Lies cruel to being kind
Victim no way
And I don't wanna make you mine
Cos I was always high
Wished it all away
You and I made
A million and one ways to die

It's a kill
It's a steal
Came in for the action
Came in for a lonely day
A holiday attraction
Came in for the job
'Cause she's a many-day attraction
Came in for the long haul of a many day

I want you still
I'm for the real
Hard times are breaking up
Ran around the wheel
How does it feel
Now that you're waking up?

Lies cruel to being kind
Victim no way
And I don't wanna make you mine
Cos I was always high
Wished it all away
You and I made
A million and one ways to die
Rise cruel to be kind
Victim no way
And I don't wanna make you mine
Cos I was always high
Wished it all away
You and I made
A million and one ways to die
