about

A doomed romance can feel like the apocalypse. Or vice versa.

lyrics

Oh baby, you're so beautifully wrong
I had to put you in a song
Where else would you belong?

Oh baby, I can see what people mean
When they say you should be seen
Only on the giant screen

Don't mind me if I survive
Leaching light that leaks from the hive
Staggering in the turbulent air
You're my omnivore on a mission
Swallowing starlets and politicians
Spewing out your dust so fine and rare

Oh baby, you're so beautifully wrong
But without you I got no song
I guess you knew that all along

Find me in your surging train
A sea of arms that reach in vain
Destiny swirling down a drain
I won't be ashamed to stare
I will fight to find my chair
I got nothing to lose, got nothing to hide

Oh baby, I can feel you in the air
Feeding on my stare
Almost as if you're really there
