Oh, my darling, you do not know
My true heart’s whereabouts
It seems to me you had a dream
You didn’t know you forgot about!
Looks like the stuff of growing up
Is ritual and bluff
Just as a mirror painted matte
Can’t show your face reflected back
I see your picture fade way
In sepia and grey
While I go on transformin’, I
I’m left behind!
Yeah I strain my voice at end of day
Tearing night in shreds away
The night of formless terrors in the dark, oh
That scorch me to the soul
No, it’s not like then, you see
If I don’t laugh, let it be
All the sorrows and scars together
Oh, I’ll take ‘em all with me!
You can’t kill my vibe, oh baby
Burning out now, like a shooting star!
You can’t kill my vibe, oh baby
Burning out now, like a shooting star!
Oh, whoa, my funny valentine
What they said was untrue
It seems to me, oh, right where we could see
Reality was trapped!
Is what it means to be a child
Dumb lack of self reliance?
Then what, within my crushing mind
Could ever have been left behind?
The words you spoke to me remain
Unfaded from that day
While I go on transformin’, I
I warn you - I
Yeah I’m livin’ so fast and recklessly
I might just pierce through that sky
And brighten up this shit-stained game of life, oh
And turn the world pure white
Don’t forgive me? Well, that’s fine…
We can’t mend it? I don’t mind
I’ll hold fast to the past forever
‘Till the bitter end, it’s mine!
Within a sky where nothing can be seen
I stand alone and hum a little melody!
Can it be I will be grown up one day?
I’ve lost an eye and only one remains!
Yeah I strain my voice at end of day
Tearing night in shreds away
The night of formless terrors in the dark, oh
That scorch me to the soul
No, it’s not like then, you see
If I don’t laugh, let it be
All the sorrows and scars together
Oh, I’ll take ‘em all with me!
You can’t kill my vibe, oh baby
Burning out now, like a shooting star!
You can’t kill my vibe, oh baby
Burning out now, like a shooting star!
