Come on baby do you think it's good to feel
Like I'm lying here swimming in memories
I fear God because everything dies babe
Got a gun in the back of my car
A spasm of good sense is making my eye twitch
I've had enough of all your consolation

I'm drowning caught in a shit tide
Tape my face to the inside of love
Nothing to eat but fears in the back seat
Well I've met God and he had nothing to say to me

I pray to God that you're right before my eyes
Bathed in white light with halos in your eyes

Don't wanna waste no more time
Time's what we don't have
Everywhere I look someone dies
Wonder when it's my turn

How well do you know me?
Leave an open door, what you looking for
Babe when you come down?
I built a time machine to escape from
All the pain in the back of my car
Living's a problem because everything dies babe
Save yourself you're not too far away

I pray to God that you're right before my eyes
Bathed in white light with halos in your eyes

Don't wanna waste no more time
Time's what we don't have
Everywhere I look someone dies
Wonder when it's my turn

    i find that to be such a powerful line, and i love the venom that neil spits when he sings it.

    General Comment:This song is awethome.. I thinks it about accepting that EVERYTHING will die eventually and finding consolation in some way... like bargaining with God:
    I pray to God,
    that you're right before my eyes,
    bathed in White light,
    with Halos in your eyes.

    Bat thats just MY theory x]

    General Comment:This song introduced me to Biffy and wow..what an epic song it is. Still one of my favorites after listening to the other albums. I think The Vertigo of Bliss and Infinity Land are better than Puzzle, but that doesn't mean Puzzle is a bad album. Im struggling to find a song they've done that i don't like.

    General Comment:Basically, this is the only half decent track on the new album. I'm very disapointed as I am a huge fan of the previous albums. I also agree with what Rodders said the lyrics are qite weak on this song.
    I do love Biffy though. A s much as I dislike the rest of the album, I do quite like this track.
