Lyrics The Smashing Pumpkins

The Smashing Pumpkins

The Everlasting Gaze

You know I'm not dead

Now you know where I've been

As you sleep

Torn I am

Weighted down

Patiently

Born of love

You know I'm not dead

I'm just living in my head

Forever waiting

On the ways of your desire

You always find a way

And thru it all

Into us all you move

Forgotten touch

Forbidden thought

We can never have enough

You know I'm not dead

Found below

The creatures scream

Stranglehold

A god machine

Begging to

Tear us out

Worn as hope

You know I'm not dead I'm just the tears inside your head

Forever waiting

On the ways of your desire

You always find a way

And thru it all into us all you move

Forgotten touch

Forbidden thought

We can never have enough

You know I'm not dead

We all want to hold in the everlasting gaze

Enchanted in the rapture of his sentimental sway

But underneath the wheels lie the skulls of every c.o.g.

The fickle fascination of an everlasting god

You know I'm not dead

I'm just living in my head

Forever waiting

Forever waiting on cruel death

You know I'm not dead

I'm just living for myself

Forever waiting

You know I'm not dead
