Mere Mortals

The trapdoor waits for everyone
You slip through the cracks in the ground
Your love is never in vain
Your love is the sun and the rain

And like the zebra stripes
You're neither white on black
Or black on white
Like Roman candles, we burn so brightly
Then fall from the sky

We are mere mortals
We, we are mere mortals

Can't help but live beyond all our means
Try hard to dream all the right dreams, yeah
(Dream all the right dreams)
This conflict is useless, useless as money in the jungle
You can't fight Utopia's muscle

You are the food of the gods to me now
I can't let go
A thousand lives I would live beside you
But I know

We, we are mere mortals
We, we are mere mortals

You are the food of the gods to me now
I can't let go
A thousand miles I have walked beside you
But now I know

We are mere mortals
We, we are mere mortals
We, we are mere mortals

(Your love is the sun and the rain)
We are mere mortals
(Your love is never in vain)
(Your love is [?])
We are mere mortals
([?])

We, we are mere mortals
