lyrics

You’ve got sensations that rise and kick up
You've got alarming charm
Your disposition makes others lash out
You wear it on your arm
If you're questioned, would you lie for us?
Taking full advantage
Anything just to bring us down
And nothing to service it

You and I were so close to love
But when it came down to taking a push or shove
We stood around
With our hands in our pockets
Just biting our tongues, asking
How can we go back to ladder's first rung
Annul this
Reverse it
Pass it on
Desert it

I’ve got no time to lose
No time to lose, no time to lose
You’ve got alarming charm
I’ve got no time to lose
No time to lose, no time to lose
I’ve got no time to lose
No time to lose, no time to lose
You’ve got alarming charm
I’ve got no time to lose
No time to lose, no time to lose

Is there life beyond what we’re living?
Are we not destined to keep repeating
All our mistakes?
Are we awake?
Real or fake

You and I were so close to love
You and I were so close to love

You and I were so close to love
But when it came down to taking a push or shove
We stood around
With our hands in our pockets
Just biting our tongues, asking
How can we go back to ladder's first rung
Annul this
Reverse it
Pass it on
Desert it
