Farewell the wilderness hand in hand So long, brother, it makes you what god's planned Secret kiss from the market stand As me and my beloved stroll towards the eastern badlands At the end of the subway the antagonist Intimidating in this urban abyss Red skin, mean scars, drunken cocaine hiss It's pretty gritty but a part of us will always resist They push my walls to the unthinkable But this ship is unsinkable (It's best to ignore these pricks) Stop pushing me and stop scaring her All these people all around me think they'll damage my love Leave her alone, take it out on me Take me instead, it makes me wonderfully sick A mouthful of blood and loose teeth The ruptured vessels hidden beneath The adrenaline dismisses the scars We still know exactly what they are The first time they ever laid eyes on you They think they should say something clever (but we can rise above together) Stop pushing me and stop scaring her All these people all around me think they'll damage my love Leave her alone, take it out on me Take me instead, it makes me wonderfully sick It's always the same, weakness in numbers versus proud A very sober game, no silver lining in the British clouds Break my face, ribs are shattered putty flesh Violent embrace Stop pushing me and stop scaring her All these people all around me think they'll damage my love Leave her alone, take it out on me Take me instead, it makes me wonderfully sick
