"A Blackout In Paris" lyrics

"A Blackout In Paris"

Growing fond of the omen
Growing fond of the yellow sky
Growing fond of the moment
Growing fond of the smell of blood

Are you new in the city
Haven't you heard the plague's coming around
There was one and then many
Riding dragons into town

While you're waiting for your lover to come around
While you're waiting for your lover to come around
Everyone you ever knew is skipping town
While you're waiting for your lover to come around

Bowing down to the new lord
Bowing down to his wretched son
Pledging now to be frugal
Pledging now to never understand

Are you new in the city
Haven't you heard the plagues coming around
There was one and then many
Riding dragons into town

While you're waiting for your lover to come around
While you're waiting for your lover to come around
Everyone you ever knew is skipping town
While you're waiting for your lover to come around

Send me a message, from the desert
It's an oasis, go read the data
All of the masses, have departed
What was the market's gone

While you're waiting for your lover to come around
While you're waiting for your lover to come around
Everyone you ever knew is skipping town
While you're waiting for your lover to come around

I'm still waiting
For my sake, we made it
I'm still waiting
I'm still waiting
For my sake, we made it
I'm still waiting
