lyrics

Pretty girls, happy boys go out on Friday night.
Delirious shadows chase them in the moonlight.
Heart strings winding like pegs of a violin.
Beautiful and dumb, too innocent to sin.

At a loss for words, wet light on the skin.
At a loss for words, with another fading in.

Immortal youth bleed American on the street,
follow suicidal, telekinetic priests.
The son of man tonight will rest his head
on another shoulder for a bed.

At a loss for words, wet light on the skin.
At a loss for words, with another fading in.

Kamikaze lovers don't need covers.
Kamikaze lovers don't need covers.
Kamikaze lovers don't need covers.
Kamikaze lovers don't need covers.

Everything is clean and nothing hurts.
A truck bed of roses and centripetal force.
Dancing beneath the raw, untamed sky,
dry lips drink as stars begin to cry.

At a loss for words, wet light on the skin.
At a loss for words, with another fading in.

Kamikaze lovers don't need covers.
Kamikaze lovers don't need covers.
Kamikaze lovers don't need covers.
Kamikaze lovers don't need covers.
