You’ve got this arrogant air
Glowing skin, just mussed hair
Take your claws from out my scars
Let me please remember you
How can you sit way up there
Do you see us down here running scared
Your martyred angel’s violent stare
We’re dying with a celestial view

Even Big Ben
Wouldn’t give me the time of day
I’ve got this one way ticket
But yours is for another train
Seconds ticking
The station’s not waiting
One last chance to leave the tracks
Or tie me down with another chain

You’ve for this elegant air
Classic, plastic, with a goddess flair
Take my breath and leave me dead
Let me please remember you
How is your pedestal so high
We gave you feathers, sturdy and light
Your halo’s tilted during flight
We’re dying to help you make it through
Even Big Ben
Wouldn’t give me the time of day
I’ve got this one way ticket
But yours is for another train
Seconds ticking
The station’s not waiting
One last chance to leave the tracks
Or tie me down with another chain
Even Big Ben(So long, we’ll see where we land)
Wouldn’t give me the time of day
The whistle’s coming closer (You’ve built your fortress walls)
Tied down, I smile and wait (And I’ve no plans for sieging them)

Someday between here and there
Your heavenly charm won’t hurt like hell
Even Big Ben
Wouldn’t give me the time of day
I’ve got this one way ticket
But yours is for another train
Seconds ticking
The station’s not waiting
One last chance to leave the tracks
Or tie me down with another chain
