Smashing Pumpkins - Tales of a Scorched Earth
Farewell goodnight last one out turn out the lights
And let me be, let me die inside
Let me know the way from this world of hate in you
’cause the dye is cast, and the bitch is back
And we’re all dead, yeah we’re all dead
Inside the future of a shattered past
(chorus)
I lie just to be real, I’d die just to feel
Why do the same old things keep on happening?
Because beyond my hopes there are no feelings
Bless the martyrs and kiss the kids
For knowing better, for knowing this
’cause you’re all whores, and I’m a fag
And I’ve got no mom and I’ve got no dad
To save me the wasted, save me from myself
(chorus)
Everybody’s lost just waiting to be found
Everyone’s a thought just waiting to fade
So fuck it all ’cause I don’t care
So what somehow somewhere we dared
To try to dare to dare for a little more
I lie just to be real, I’d die just to feel
Why do the same old things keep on happening?
Because beyond my hopes there are no reasons
