Not whole
not wholly
separate but syncopated
Single in our nature
and because
of the times
Not a word was said
when the lights came on
or a glance given pause
at the cost of our
desired wrongs
It's second nature
to love you
it's first to die
And we were killed
upon waking
killed upon waking
to the life
We weren't prepared to live
but rebelled to realize
We were killed upon
the pavement
Bonnie we're immortalized in
Blood cold cold love
we were still young
When the radio lights
came on
Elton's on the air
no fair dear
that we were still here
In the absence of everything
abstain from fear
And if I cry
in your arms
just some other shit
just some other shit
Just some other things
that I've been dealing with
I'd die in your arms
bury me while playing this
Bury me saying
You were all I ever needed
And hold me like we're dying
from the liquor that we drank
Down in hotel rooms
to feel warm in cold love
What's harder harder to say
that you want me to stay
That you want me to stay
unchanged for you
Chained to a lie
we're the same you and I
we're the same
Not the same we hurt differently
but consistent in our pain
Equal and equidistant
in the way we laugh
To lay bare the weight
of our cold love affair
Recalling the days where
we were
we weren't we were
Wrong for the papers
wrong for the dinner tables
Of the inner rings
of the rich and famous anythings
It's gone not bad
just gone my bad
just wrong we had
and we had
and we were then in
Blood cold cold love
we were still young
When the radio lights
came on
Elton's on the air
no fair
dear that we were still here
In the absence of everything
abstain from fear
And if I cry
in your arms
just some other shit
just some other shit
Just some other things
that I've been dealing with
I'd die in your arms
bury me while playing this
Bury me saying
You were all I ever needed
And hold me like we're dying
from the liquor that we drank
Down in hotel rooms
to feel warm
What's harder
harder to say
that you want me to stay
That you want me to stay
unchanged for you
Chained to a lie
we're the same you and I
we're the same
What's harder
harder to fake
that you want me to stay
That you want me to stay
the same for you
Chained to a lie
who's to blame
Let it die
we're the same
In blood cold cold
love we were still young
When the radio lights
came on
Elton's on the air
