Assassins

blues and greens and in-betweens
I sit beside the pharaoh queen
the best is yet to come
although my heart is still a goner

I've lost my heart to fancy free
the girls I've won are killing me
the ones I've lost are looking back
from a long, long mirror

come on over, give me one true love
we'll be getting over this one
I'll be back within a second
to engulf you

no, this can't go on
the damage has all been done
I threw it at the sun
all that's left is love
lonely love
are you all right?
try to find your way back
to the life that you've destroyed

scared to love and scared to act
can't bear at all to look back
don't know what's wrong or right
with anything I once believed in

don't feel at all (in tired?)
the greatest (form near?) broke my back
the ghosts are staring in from every
cold, dark corner

tell me that you'll give me one true love
we'll be getting over this one
I'll be back within a decade
to engulf you

no, this can't go on
the damage has all been done
I threw it at the sun
