Sofa Drugs - Open City

complicate or comply

if it suits you, well, I don’t mind

to dress in red, to lie in bed

with my forked tongue tied

I’m not asleep yet.

breaking every rule we set,

is this all we can fit in our hungry mouths?

she don’t care, well, I don’t mind

we’re filling up the pens to draw the lines

to call it quits?

or write the script?

without which how would we know how to live?

everyone keeps acting like they know a secret

now pay attention to the words we say:

«this isn’t really about what we say»

it’s about what we do

it’s about what we say we want to

now our eyes are closed and

we’re following like faithful sheep

buy it for us

so we can accept your generosity

graciously on our knees

apparently I haven’t said enough

I know you’ve already heard it all

buy it for us

our head in your hands

when we’re sedate enough

pour the gas, light the match and get out of here.
