The songs title comes from a poem by Charles Bukowski (An American-German poet).
It’s about uh… living in the moment and being happy with who you are, and finding happiness and being alive. - Buddy Nielsen (Then & Now, 2004)
This song is about how you can fake who you are, lying and pret...
[Verse 1]
So the lie now is my weapon
Like a bush dried and withered in the sun
With this spark I'll go up in flames
I'd lay my guts out but they're too small to see
It's kinda cute how I pretend to be
Everything but the instrument I am
[Chorus]
Peace or happiness?
So let it enfold you
A birth to life is what I'm after
My first name won't be my last one
Let the light just drip into your eyes
[Verse 2]
So it's true my words are contrived
I tell lies just to get into your mind
I'm as fake as a widow's smile
This mask of glass is what I choose to wear
So I won't ever have the need to bare
The total truth to anyone but me
[Chorus]
Peace or happiness?
So let it enfold you
A birth to life is what I'm after
My first name won't be my last one
Let the light just drip into your eyes
[Post-Chorus]
The light (The light)
Into (into)
Your eyes (Your eyes)
All night
[Bridge]
I'm just a bad actor stuck with a shitty script
All of my lines are cheap and the cast is weak
There was no music for the first time I got kissed
There was no femme fatale, my mistress wasn't rich
So I've been formatted to fit your TV screen
The film went straight to tape, I'll bow out quietly
So quietly, so quietly
[Outro]
Please do this now I beg
Duct tape my arms and legs
Throw me into the sea
(Please save me, please save me)
Please do this now I beg
Duct tape my arms and legs
Throw me into the sea
(Please save me, please save me)
Now watch the waves eat me
Setting my cold heart free
I'll wash ashore in weeks
(You can't save me, can't save me)
Now watch the waves eat me
Setting my cold heart free
I'll wash ashore in weeks
(You can't save me)
You can't save me now
