love and death

The Subways

I'm blue and bruised
From the blackened truth
I felt my heart stop
And when I'm dead
There's nothing left to prove

I want to breath so that I can see
I don't choke on total need
And love and death are like
A king and queen
Held together naturally

Slow down
This new disease with open arms
And why frown
When people everywhere are going down

I blew the scene like an old memory
Cos I've never heard such stupid things
And love and death are always meant to be
To the end it's naturally

Slow down
This new disease with open arms
And why frown
When people everywhere are going down another year has gone
Another day that follows
Still in my dreams I'm dying

I'm blue and bruised
From the blackened truth
I felt my heart stop
And when I'm dead
There's nothing left to prove

Slow down
This new disease with open arms
And why frown
When people everywhere are going down
