lyrics

If I was a boxer and you were a thief
I’d follow you around till you became my belief
We’d roll in the gutters, we’d scour the sea
I’d find the cure
You would lose the battle, and I the war

If you could appear and be here in my life
You’d rape me and leave me and render me blind
Oh I’d be your victim, and you’d be my crime
So self-assured
You have cost me friends, I give my word

In my dreams there’s a house in the country, and
You wait with a child
You're lovelier than I could have hoped
Bliss is chosen, time is frozen tonight
I spread my wings and take flight

When the morning arrives I can’t get to my feet
I wallow in visions of idolatry
I cover my head and I pray for more sleep
But the night is gone
I waste away until the setting sun

I’ll play your puppet, my favorite part
I’ll memorize lines till I know them by heart
When Asuka strikes, she will tear you apart
Limb from limb
I’m shocked to find my heart is paper thin

In my mind there’s a house in the country, and
You wait with a smile
Your beauty is beyond belief
Love is chosen, we lie softly entwined
But it will not last this time

You deserve to discover where you can be happy
Spread your wings and fly away free
Find some arms that will hold you close for me

You’re only a dream, and sad as it seems
Your emptiness makes my heart die
I need to escape, to abandon this place
Need reality, not your blue eyes
Consider this a victory! Raise your flag up high!

Asuka, my friend, this is goodbye.
