Into the dark he fled to hide from his pain
A different town for three days to shoot liquid joy in his veins
He's not around this town 'til his money's down
My dear friend, it hurts me to see you this way
But he'll never learn
And he's lying on the ground
He will never learn, never learn, never learn
And can't you see dear, this is a grisly death-to-be
He will never learn, never learn, never learn
Known you but six months and this really needs to stop
Not that I think you should, but it's making your teeth rot
He's all alone, ostracised in his very own home
My dear friend, it hurts me to see you this way
But he'll never learn
And he's lying on the ground
He will never learn, never learn, never learn
And can't you see dear, this is a grisly death-to-be
He will never learn, never learn, never learn
My dear friend, it hurts me to see you this way (x4)
But he'll never learn
And he's lying on the ground
He will never learn, never learn, never learn
And can't you see dear, this is a grisly death-to-be
He will never learn, never learn, never learn
But he'll never learn
Never learn, never learn, never learn,
Oh darling you will never learn.

I have caffeine for a bloodstream,
And smoke for lungs
And previous loneliness
Bares it's marks on my skin
And there is starlight hidden in your soul
But darling why won't you believe
That monster's don't exist 'cept in your heart and your head?
But in this artist's sketchbook
The ink stains my hands black
But in this tattered notebook
I can't lie to you anymore
And apparently 'we are our own devils
And we make this world our own hell'
But that's about all the Oscar Wilde I can quote
To give this song a touch of meaning
But in this artist's sketchbook
The blood bleeds fromthe pages
But in this tattered notebook
I'll try not to lie to you anymore
Oh, I'll try not to lie any more
I have caffeine for a bloodstream,
And smoke for lungs
And previous loneliness
Bares it's marks on my skin
