i may tell a little lie to the night, i may, cry a cup of tears, yes i might i may be sad but don't you worry, there are times we have had They're the best i ever knew and i may yet tip a cup with you When the night comes down on the city of my life i am dreaming, ah ah, i am dreaming We are puppets to the Gods, slavelings to the strings they are pulling, ah ah ah We dance the dance of the damned as we kneel at the feet of the king We pray a little prayer 'cause we're sinners, oh oh, we sinners, we pray and sing In a smoke filled room on the planet of my skin, i am waking, ah ah, i am waking The woman comes to call, i am forced to fall in to her voices, ah ah ah Waltzing in the dance hall of love, the lady and the blind violin We steal a little kiss 'cause we're lovers like this We're lovers where love is a sin On a beam of light through the black hole of my mind i am riding, ah ah, i am riding When the blade goes tumbling in, i become the flow as i'm falling, ah ah ah Screaming to the red line of shame, calling to the lady waterfall We plunge beneath the waves when there's nothing left to save Swimming like a rock ten feet tall When it's over again, from the bottom of my soul i am laughing, ah ah, i am laughing We're jokers 'til the end, ghosts and aliens, we come sneaking, ah ah ah We're crawling underneath the bed, breathing with a sweet lover's sigh We make her say our name when there's no one else to blame She dreamed a lover in the night
