lyrics

You're playing at home but you're feeling away
The light moves in shapes that your mind wants to make
Taking a stab at something in the dark
Can't find the spark, too quick off the mark
The pit off your stomach, the bend of your bones
You wait by the phone, feeling alone
Take out your pearls and your diamonds too
He's gone right through, they're looking at you

The blood and the bruise always leads to the truth
You dance in my dreams and I'm feeling confused
Announcement inbound but it's all old news
Switch on my mystic function

Thirty seconds is all that it takes
To shoot into space, listening to tapes
Caught in a loop that you can't seem to break
You can't seem to shake, it keeps you awake
Stand on the stage, awaiting applause
When the curtain falls, there's nothing at all
Who knew the silence was so loud?
You watch from the crowd in the absence of sound

The blood and the bruise always leads to the truth
You dance in my dreams and I'm feeling confused
Announcement inbound but it's all old news
Switch on my mystic function

and the blood and the bruise always leads to the truth
You dance in my dreams and I'm feeling confused
Announcement inbound but it's all old news
Switch on my mystic function
and the blood and the bruise always leads to the truth
You dance in my dreams but I'm feeling confused
Announcement inbound but it's all old news
Switch on my mystic function
