In a wet dream or a vision
You were knocking on my door
Looking for something you were missing
You know exactly who I am
I own this stretch of barren land
This painting on a motel wall
This problem that we’re gonna solve
See if you help me, well
I can give you anything
I’ll give you anything
I’ll give you anything
I know it’s freedom you desire
But you reek of religion
Maybe it’s that church that caught on fire
Where all you punk kids are livin’
These boring monuments
All shining and white
In honor of boring men
Like those poor bastards from the mine
Let’s make something huge and full of rust
Rebar ‘round my handsome bust
Broken glass like jagged flowers
Climbing up a twisting tower
Yeah I want to see its shadow on everything
Shadow on everything
Shadow on everything
We’ll slip dynamite in the suits
Of the people in the museum
Or we could wall them all inside
And turn it into a mausoleum
I’ll come find you in the night
You know, I can see perfectly in the dark
Its just when the sun hits
I cant see anything
I’ve seen you before In a wet dream or a vision You were knocking on my door Looking for something you were missing You know exactly who I am I own this stretch of barren land This painting on a motel wall This problem that we’re gonna solve See if you help me, well I can give you anything I’ll give you anything I’ll give you anything I know it’s freedom you desire But you reek of religion Maybe it’s that church that caught on fire Where all you punk kids are livin’ These boring monuments All shining and white In honor of boring men Like those poor bastards from the mine Let’s make something huge and full of rust Rebar ‘round my handsome bust Broken glass like jagged flowers Climbing up a twisting tower Yeah I want to see its shadow on everything Shadow on everything Shadow on everything We’ll slip dynamite in the suits Of the people in the museum Or we could wall them all inside And turn it into a mausoleum I’ll come find you in the night You know, I can see perfectly in the dark Its just when the sun hits I cant see anything Explain Request ×
