Lyrics The Smashing Pumpkins

The Smashing Pumpkins

Telegenix

She takes the sweet outside

She takes the sweet outside

The sooner I fight, the sooner I mind, the sooner I mind

A cradle to the tears

The sooner I fight, the sooner I mind, the sooner I mind

She takes the sweet outside

To part our grand demise

If they say it's not suicide

If they say it's not suicide

Then I will bet on your life

From sodden vale and hell's divide

That wind says rain

As blossoms fell for live TV

The ghosts we slay come ours to reap

Upending what's land's end

If they say it's not suicide, then what is

At the bottom of a boot black sea?

She cools at the flame

She cools at the flame

The sooner I mind, the sooner I fight, the sooner I fight

Chanting our device

The sooner I mind, the sooner I fight, the sooner I fight

Where nothin' real settles in

As televised, a covenant

The bereft are blown cathodes

And the blame strafes every zone

In fever dreams, and blood shot odes

The skies never seemed so far

If they say it's not suicide

If they say it's not suicide

If they say it's not suicide

To the full of gods at peace

If I'd leave here, you're first at least

You're why I fought

And I will bet on your life

From sodden vale and hell's divide

You're why I fought

If they say it's not suicide

Then what is?
