Climbing up a ladder to see the Milky Way
I peel off the lid and stare into the space I've made
Hollow inside and I'm cold on the out
I can't help wonderin' what she's all about
When all I can muster of a real thing
Is hanging by a thread and killing me
Colonised by a parasite
This growing inside's got a beating heart
There's nowhere to hide from the very start
A fait accompli, fait accompli
Sleep now and rest your skin on me
Walking up a corridor to a distant face
I wait at the door in awe of the mess I've made
Follow the doctor and take their advice
Until they get it wrong, you never think twice
When all I can muster of a real thing
Is hanging by a thread and killing me
I cannot hold a virtue when I'm losing my patience
This growing inside's got a beating heart
There's nowhere to hide from the very start
A fait accompli, fait accompli
Sleep now and rest your skin on me
This growing inside's got a beating heart
There's nowhere to hide from the very start
A fait accompli, fait accompli
Sleep now and rest your skin on me
