My companion through life but what's your name?
I thought I knew...
Whispered in code, in fragments and secrecy
Part by part, forty and counting
Through the pain and the grief
You've been my one and only relief
Cause this town is sad and we like it that way
You're born here, you stay put
What should I call you my dear?
As you set my soul on fire
Burning only to carbonise
But not yet, I'll use you first
You've fed on me I'm almost gone
Time to sin before the dawn
Burning only to carbonise
Time to sin, shine so brightly one last time
I thought I knew...
Whispered in code, in fragments and secrecy
Part by part, forty and counting
Through the pain and the grief
You've been my one and only relief
Cause this town is sad and we like it that way
You're born here, you stay put
What should I call you my dear?
As you set my soul on fire
Burning only to carbonise
But not yet, I'll use you first
You've fed on me I'm almost gone
Time to sin before the dawn
Burning only to carbonise
Time to sin, shine so brightly one last time
