Bloc Party

Underneath the iron cloud
That will not let my daylight out
So I smoke myself until I go
See-through
Atomised and bugging out
Signal fails in the CBD
So I hold my breath until I start
To glow

Take me to the garden
Stand with me naked by the tree
Feed me poisoned apples
Feed me till I forget everything
With each bite we take
Let the moonlight awaken in us
So we can dance
To the beat of the drum

Underfoot, the serpent moves
Watching us with a crystal gaze
Eyes that record
Every wicked thought
There are times I feel like
I've seen everything
That I need to see
Oh, make me someone new

Take me to the garden
Stand with me naked by the tree
Feed me poisoned apples
Feed me till I forget everything
With each bite we take
Let the moonlight awaken in us
So we can dance
To the beat of the drum
