You'd Be Mine

I see a shattered nation

I see a life of crime

I see a brilliant future going down, down, down

I feel these walls are closing

I think this is the end

Undaunted, falling, falling, descending like a cigarette unwanted

Would it make you happy if

Everyone around you smiled

Then you wouldn't have to hide

The world'd be yours

And you would be mine

I'd be your Rasputin in blue jeans

My predictions denied

I'd be your soul searching junkie

And you would be mine

I feel the anger rising

I taste a cake uneaten

I see a falling angel going down, down, down

I see a rich attorney

I see a case unbroken

My body shivers like a cold, cold misdirected heart

Would it make you happy if

Everyone around you smiled

Then you wouldn't have to hide

The world'd be yours

And you'd be mine

I'd be your prometheus stealing

From a nuclear sky

I'd be your insecure hero

And you would be mine.

Would it make you happy if

Everyone around you smiled

Then you wouldn't have to hide

The world'd be yours

And you would be mine
