Can you take a step away From the scalpel lying there? Ready when you are To take it all apart A light that's blinking What was I thinking? Newsprint on a forehead Fold your paper, go to bed A burn that's blistering Try to stop listening Get lost in a series Of photos of palm trees The light keeps blinking The sun keeps sinking Let's stay up here tonight Yeah we'll live by the moonlight Ooh breaking down Every day Into slices and sections that just Slide away Ooh breaking down Every day Into forces and fragments that just float away
