Future Crimes

Caught in my life this time--

I'll swear off future crimes;

lighten my soul.

I'll give up everything:

the kick, the bite, the scream.

You tame it all.

I want you back to front,

I want you front to back--

I want to feel this again,

just like a heart attack.

I want to make it real,

I want to make it good--

and make it right.

Caught in my life this time,

'cause I'm so hardwired

to be alone.

We wanna know everything,

but you were just kidding--

don't wanna know, and

my blood flows out to it,

my nerves are inside-out,

there's voices in my head--

it's like a barking shout--

but I can't turn it off,

no I can't turn it down

or make it quiet.

I want to know.

I want to know.

If you're gonna be a restless soul,

then you're gonna be so so tired.

If you're gonna keep me up all night,

then you'd better learn to love this fire.

If you're gonna be a restless soul,

then you're gonna be so so tired.

If you're gonna give up on this fight,

then I'm gonna call you a liar.
