Sugar in the Engine

There’s sugar in the engine

I feel the friction and tension here

Sprinkled salt on the injured

It’s been such a controversy here

With such a conversation piece

Look closely

Life isn’t what it seems sometimes

Act lonely

And just hope one day you’ll feel alive

There’s smoke all around the ceiling

I get the feeling that no one’s safe

Concentrate on our healing

Gather ‘round you know it’s worth the wait

Look closely

Life isn’t what it seems sometimes

Act lonely

And just hope one day you’ll feel alive

Close your eyes and make a wish

You need more than a crucifix to survive

I know I’ll never make your list

I just hope one day I feel alive

One day I’ll feel alive (4x)

Look closely

Life isn’t what it seems sometimes

Act lonely

And just hope one day you’ll feel alive

Close your eyes and make a wish

You need more than a crucifix to survive

I know I’ll never make your list

I just hope one day I feel alive (2x)

(spoken word)

On November 24th I woke up just like any other day

Beginning of another tour just another city I’ve already seen before

If I only knew that last night was the last night I would ever see you

I would have said goodnight

I would have said I loved you

I would have said goodbye (12x)

(Singing over words)

Sleep

Be safe

Without you here

We take the stage

And I am so afraid

This fragile future

My soul to take (2x)
