lyrics
Under an alias
And soft blue light
I introduced myself
Your mode was shy
I took some liberties
We took our time
We were agreeable
Our drinks were fine
Under the influence
With full free will
You took a photograph
I took a pill
It was not original
But we felt we’d won
I felt the sum of you
In your small warm tongue
Both of the modern world
Both pale and white
We got our Liberty
Now we need a plight
I’ll be your empathy
If you’ll be mine
Lost in each other’s needs
We’ll both feel kind
We’ll both feel nice
We’ll both feel fine
Fed on our mothers’ milk
We’re milky white
So full of sympathy
Our hands are tied
I’ll be your Romeo
If you’ll stay alive
I like our furniture
This bed feels fine
Both of the modern world
Both pale and white
Bloated on Liberty
Purging by night
I’ll be your scapegoat
Your alibi
Lost in each other’s needs
We’ll both feel kind
We’ll both feel nice
We’ll both feel fine
And soft blue light
I introduced myself
Your mode was shy
I took some liberties
We took our time
We were agreeable
Our drinks were fine
Under the influence
With full free will
You took a photograph
I took a pill
It was not original
But we felt we’d won
I felt the sum of you
In your small warm tongue
Both of the modern world
Both pale and white
We got our Liberty
Now we need a plight
I’ll be your empathy
If you’ll be mine
Lost in each other’s needs
We’ll both feel kind
We’ll both feel nice
We’ll both feel fine
Fed on our mothers’ milk
We’re milky white
So full of sympathy
Our hands are tied
I’ll be your Romeo
If you’ll stay alive
I like our furniture
This bed feels fine
Both of the modern world
Both pale and white
Bloated on Liberty
Purging by night
I’ll be your scapegoat
Your alibi
Lost in each other’s needs
We’ll both feel kind
We’ll both feel nice
We’ll both feel fine
