Lyrics
And sex was always there from when I was only eight years
Tempting me, leaving me thirsty
Sweat, skin, a pulse divine to balance this restless mind
It seems so wonderfully physical
Oh the blood, the lust; the bodies that color the world
All drugs to die for, won't you share my fire?
How can love make that world a minefield of forbidden ground?
A map of untouchable skin and silenced desire?
(And silenced desired)
And love was there in vain, profound and deep but traced with pain
Too early for a child of ten
Loving the pure and sane, he sought the goddesses unstained
Watching them turn to flesh again
Hungry for both the purity and sin
Life seemed to him merely like a gallery of how to be
And he was always much more human than he wished to be
But there is a logic to his world if they could only see
(Wishing...) Sickened!
(Ill...)
Oooh– ticking!
Someone still this hunger (It's in my blood)
Always growing stronger (Ticking)
Budapest, I'm learning
Budapest, you're burning me!
This is not who I wanted to be
This is not what I wanted to see (She's so young)
She's so young so why don't I feel free
Now that she is here under me?!
(Naked...) Touching!
(Soft...)
Oooh– clutching!
Then, and after all, it lead me here to wake up again
Seeking a love that might make me feel free in myself but then
It proves to be something that hurts inside when we touch
So I move on, I lose my way– astray, I'm trying too much
To feel unchained, to burn out this sense of feeling cold
And every day I seek my prey; someone to taste and to hold
I feel alive during the split second when they smile
And meet my eyes but I could cry
'Cause I feel broken inside
Come and drown with me
The undertow will sweep us away
And you will see that I'm addicted to my honesty
Trust, 'cause after all
My sense of truth once brought me here
But I've lost control and I don't know if I am true to my soul
I've lost control and I don't know if I am true to my soul
Losing control and I don't know if I am true at all!
And we were always much more human than we wished to be
And I remember when you said you've been under him
I was surprised to feel such pain
And all those years of being faithful to you
Despite the hunger flowing through my veins
And I have always tried to calm things down
Swallow down, swallow down!
"It's just another small thorn in my crown."
But suddenly one day there was just too much blood in my eyes
And I had to take this walk down Remedy Lane of whens and whys
(Empty...) Licking!
(Clean...)
Oooh– choking!
Someone still this hunger (Possessing my mind)
Always growing stronger (Craving)
Budapest, I'm learning
Budapest, I'm burning me!
This is not who I wanted to be
This is not what I wanted to see (She's so young)
She's so young, so why don't I feel free
Now that she's under me?
In the morning she's going away in a Budapest taxi I've paid
Seeking freedom, I touched the unheard
It's too much
I'm beyond the pale!
Prematurity is the story of both you and me
And we were always much more human than we wished to be
Prematurity is truly the story of both you and me
And we were always much more human than we wished to be
We were always much more human than we wished to be
We were always much more human than we wished to be
We will always be more human than we wish to be
We will always be so much more human than we wish to be
