A Way To Survive

It's not a matter for discussion,
But a way to survive:
A way to get by.

First we'll have a smoke,
Then we'll cruise the night sky:
The city build on blood,
Our love built on new lies.

Quicksand promises and blissful days
Before the credit card has died.

It's not a matter for discussion,
But a way to survive.

I'm awake without thinking,
I'm asleep without dreaming.
I have such a thirst that I can tame without drinking.

It's not a matter for discussion,
But a way to survive.

So I drink to the power,
On the hour,
Every hour.

Oh my eyes [inaud] the glory
This waiting is [innaud]

I pray for rain and it rained down dust.
What I thought was love was only lust.

There's an outline on the bed where your body once lay.
I want to feel that good again
I want to feel that good again.
Good again, good again.

So I drink to the power,
On the hour,
Every hour.

So I drink to the power,
This waiting,
This waiting,
this waiting is [innaud].
