[Verse 1]
Tubes and wires
And blue lampshades
Bleach and coffee cups
And hospital gowns
And there she's spread
Like stone from the grass
The machine in the corner
Making its sounds
Counting hours, counting minutes
Counting seconds, counting sheep
[?] grows tired
Talking in your sleep

[Verse 2]
Madness drips
Your heart starts beating
Looking up
At the tiles in the ceiling
Gas and air
And drugs, and things
You don't even know what half of it means
And then it's there
And it begins

[Pre-Chorus]
And it's bigger than a man like me
And it's bigger than a man like me

[Chorus]
But I said, this world is dark
The same as you
So guard your love
But give it too
And you said, "we're no saints
But that's okay
Would you have it any, any other way?"

[Pre-Chorus]
And then it's there
And it begins
And it's bigger than a man like me
And it's bigger than a man like me

[Chorus]
But I said, this world is dark
The same as you
So guard your love
But give it too
And you said dirty things
You couldn't dream
I'll teach you all
There is to seek

And I said the world is dark
The same as you
So guard your love
But give it too
And you said "we're no saints
But that's okay
Would you have it any, any other way?"

And I said the world is dark
The same as you
So guard your love
But give it too
And you said "we're no saints
But that's okay
Would you have it any, any other way?"

So guard your love
But give
I said this world is dark
The same as you
Take all your love
But give it too
