You broke the mould
Tore the book to pieces and wrote your own
Your heart dissolved
Into a million pieces you couldn't solve
You lost the plot
Your skin got tight and split at the seams
So you shut the beams
Sat back and watched the picture in wide screen

You smell like sunshine gasoline
You made the first cut clean

You knew a girl
Her face was drawn the scars were real
She carved her own
Had a fear of being buried of dying alone
She likes the rain
Takes medication for the labour pains
She says our lives are feigned
And when you're gone all they'll remember is your name

She smells like sunshine gasoline
She made the first cut clean

And now we're older
And so much better
I take it back. It's so familiar
Our limbs are coloured red and black

You knew a boy
He had a golden tounge and lips of stone
Cut from the same bone
He makes a lonely sound when he's on the phone
You picked him out
A clouded mind that's yours to clean
He looked the part
He played the part perfectly

She smells like sunshine gasoline
She made the first cut clean

And now we're older
And so much better
I take it back. It's so familiar
Our limbs are coloured red and black

You get a new skin when the old one flakes
You get another fresh start as a perfect stranger
You've never been happier

I held your hair, you bit your tongue
You held your breath. I picked my bones
No spark. No fire. No hope. No desire
You've got alot left to answer for
