Letra
0:01If you gave me a fresh carnation
0:05I would only crush its tender petals
0:09With me you'll have no escape
0:13And at the same time
0:14There'll be nowhere to settle
0:18I trample down all life in my wake
0:22I eat it up and take the cake
0:26I just avert my eyes to the pain
0:30Of someone's loss helping my gain
0:34If you gave me a dream for my pocket
0:38You'd be plugging in the wrong socket
0:43With me there's no room for the future
0:47With me there's no room
0:49With a view at all
0:51I am out of season all year 'round
0:55Hear machinery roar to my empty sound
1:00Touch my heart and feel winter
1:04Hold my hand and be doomed forever
1:47If you gave me a fresh carnation
1:51I would only crush its tender petals
1:56With me you'll have no escape
1:59And at the same time
2:01There'll be nowhere to settle
2:04And if you're wondering by
2:06Now who I am
2:09Look no further than the mirror
2:13Because I am the greed and fear
2:17And every ounce of hate in you
If you gave me a fresh carnation I would only crush its tender petals With me you'll have no escape And at the same time There'll be nowhere to settle I trample down all life in my wake I eat it up and take the cake I just avert my eyes to the pain Of someone's loss helping my gain If you gave me a dream for my pocket You'd be plugging in the wrong socket With me there's no room for the future With me there's no room With a view at all I am out of season all year 'round Hear machinery roar to my empty sound Touch my heart and feel winter Hold my hand and be doomed forever If you gave me a fresh carnation I would only crush its tender petals With me you'll have no escape And at the same time There'll be nowhere to settle And if you're wondering by Now who I am Look no further than the mirror Because I am the greed and fear And every ounce of hate in you
