Lyrics

Finding new ways to daunt you
With the same old thing
There's a million ways of dying
From the same old thing
Taking the lonely by surprise
Hating, frightening, baiting, darkening
The world around me you see
It's the same old thing
Sometimes I see in a flash of blue
That no-one wins
And then I'm locked in
With the same old thing
Fighting on at my command
All your monkeys with no fur
Riding bareback on the bodies of your friends
Bringing hunchbacks to the playtime of their ends
I'm the ruthless opponent of all you can do
And there's no-one who will help you
There's no crown of thorns for a king
No-one to pin your faith in
Finding ways to torment you
With the same old thing
A thousand ways of dying
From the same old thing
Taking them by surprise
Hating, frightening, baiting, darkening
The world around me you see
It's the same old thing
Sometimes I see in a flash of red
That no-one wins until they're dead
That we're all locked in
We're all locked in with the same old thing
