"List Of Enemies" lyrics

I know my words have you worn you down, but you've never known anything else
Sex, drugs and rock n roll etc.
I can make it better
Well, say it like you mean it cos we could go with anybody else
Oh, look, something shiny sparkling in the distance
You've got my attention

I scratch another name
Cos we don't bleed the same
How longs a piece of string?
Oh, it all depends

My heart is working overtime
I'm sorry son, my hands are tied
Small talk, big topic, deep breaths, canned laughter
This is a disaster
I think I really needed that virtual reality check
Something inside me boils to the surface
And tells me that its time to scratch another name
Cos don't bleed the same
How longs a piece of string?
How long must we wait?
