The ones who bit the pill To fall asleep again The vodka gave me courage And took away the blame And underneath the spotlight she danced out all my names The moth she did her dance she did She lost her grip again Now she's shrivelled, she's all dried up Lost upon the flame Lost upon the flame my love Lost upon the flame Lost upon the flame my love Lost upon the flame She took me to the shadows She gave me back my name Upon the twilight we did dance Flirted again with fame So I hold my riding crop I'm whipping myself sane The moth she did her dance she did And lost her grip again Now she's shrivelled, she's all dried up Lost upon the flame Lost upon the flame, my love Lost upon the flame Lost upon the flame, my love Lost upon the flame Into the river I did jump This time I'm not to blame They pulled me from the broiling swamp Washed me in the rain The ones who bit the pill oh yes To fall asleep again The vodka gave me courage And took away the blame The moth she did her dance she did She lost her grip again Now she's shrivelled, she's all dried up Lost upon the flame Lost upon the flame, my love Lost upon the flame Lost upon the flame, my love Lost upon the flame Lost upon the flame my love Lost upon the flame
