[Verse 1]
Each night I lay beneath the Earth
I am tired of feeling powerless
With no edge and no reflected light
There is something in the way of us

[Verse 2]
Don't cry now, all the wheels will turn
There'll be bluebirds over you and I
With black brains, they'll come to save our lives
As our flesh becomes electrified

[Pre-Chorus]
We sleep in pairs, just waiting

[Chorus]
Can you take me away? Can you stop with the lies?
Are you desperate? Yes, I think I'm desperate
What's my best bet? On your deathbed?
Yes, I'm on my last legs, then you're desperate

[Verse 3]
Blaze on me, bird of paradise
Don't be fearful, don't you close your eyes
Oh, sister, keep the hope alive
We can run before they realise
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm asking you to heal me

[Chorus]
Can you take me away? Can you stop with the lies?
Are you desperate? Yes, I think I'm desperate
What's my best bet? On your deathbed?
Yes, I'm on my last legs, then you're desperate
Can you take me away? Can you stop with the lies?
