Human life is flawed by design It's not really built to survive And I'll protect you Cut the flower and watch it just die The scent living on in your mind It's how we love Killer, broken, battered, bitter I can see the innocence fading Feel so alive, we break Somehow forget we're mortal, there's no escaping We know when we die The life that we live is the blink of an eye Easily we're misled Best intentions corrupted There's no justice We build imitations of life Somehow we're meant to survive when we hardly know What we are, we're Killer, broken, battered, bitter, I can see the innocence fading Feel so alive, we break Somehow forget we're mortal, there's no escaping We know when we die The life that we live is the blink of an eye
