Mottled house, locked milk down, still a modern dream Let down, it kills me, you know I'm dying out here What would you trade the pain for? I'm not sure We were a hammer to the statue of David We were a painting you could never frame And you were the sunshine of my lifetime What would you trade the pain for? This city always hangs a little bit lonely Hold me loose Like a kid playing pretend in his father's suit I'll never go, I just want to be invited Got to give up, get the feeling, get the feeling Don't fight it, fight it Sending my love from the other side of the apocalypse And I just about snapped, don't look back Every lover's got a little dagger in their hand Love from the other side of the apocalypse And I just about snapped, don't look back Every lover's got a little dagger in their hand Generation sleep, I'm falling In and out of love, I'm getting that tilted feeling out here What would you trade the pain for? I'm not sure Now we're left for us to go, but heaven I saw my father through our fingers again And you were the sunshine of my lifetime What would you trade the pain for? We're told we gotta get ahead, yeah, no matter what it takes But there's no way off the hamster wheel on this red race I'll never go, I just want to be invited Got to give up, get the feeling, get the feeling Don't fight it, fight it Sending my love from the other side of the apocalypse And I just about snapped, don't look back Every lover's got a little dagger in their hand Love from the other side of the apocalypse And I just about snapped, don't look back Every lover's got a little dagger in their hand I saw you in a bright clear field Hurricane heat in my head The kind of pain you feel to get good in the end But in the end, inscribed like stone and faded by the rain Give up what you love Give up what you love Before it does you in Sending my love from the other side of the apocalypse And I just about snapped, don't look back Every lover's got a little dagger in their hand Sending my love from the other side of the apocalypse And I just about snapped, don't look back Every lover's got a little dagger in their hand Sending my love Sending my love
