Melancholy, melancholy life
Mouse will turn into man
(Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na)
Running out of time
He’ll run as fast as he can
Please spare the children
Please don’t take their lives
One man on the fringe of greatness
Impeded by his own design
He’s disarmed from a broken promise
He’s disarmed (x2)
A little black cat ran in front of your car
A little superstition always goes too far
(Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na)
Running out of time
Like a coward with no vertebrate
I find this nearest exit and attempt to flee
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Is it really victimless
If I’m the one with blood on my hands?
(Kill the mad machine, mad machine)
One too many murder dwellings
Banished to the back of my head
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Face me, I beg you, please (x2)
You’re almost seventeen (x2)
It’s not late for me (x2)
To give up on my dreams
My dreams (x2) will be waiting
One man on the fringe of greatness
Impeded by his own design
He’s disarmed from a broken promise
He’s disarmed (x2)
Your insomnia is as fake as they come
You’re not a dark poet;
You don’t deserve to be loved
(Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na)
Running out of time
Put your clothes back on And get your legs off mine
I don’t want to grow old
And you’re a waste of my time
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Is it really victimless
If I’m the one with blood on my hands?
(Kill the mad machine, mad machine)
One too many murder dwellings
Banished to the back of my head
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Face me, I beg you, please (x2)
You’re almost seventeen (x2)
It’s not late for me (x2)
To give up on my dreams
My dreams (x2) will be waiting
Love, it unfurls and creeps up on us (Kill the mad machine we fed.
Kill it dead)
Kill the mad machine (Kill the mad machine we fed. Kill it dead)
Kill the mad machine we fed
Kill it dead
Face me, I beg you, please (x2) (Kill the mad machine we fed. Kill it dead)
You’re almost seventeen (x2) (Kill the mad machine we fed. Kill it dead)
It’s not late for me (x2) (Kill the mad machine we fed. Kill it dead)
To give up on my dreams (Kill the mad machine we fed. Kill it dead)
My dreams (x2) will be waiting
Kill the mad machine we fed
