Empty Vessels

Tiptoe past the graveyard

On our best behavior

We're too you to die

Too gorgeous and way too high

Don't dwell on the tragic

When weaving through traffic

They all fall in line

All part of a grand design

Is there nothing sacred?

You're love your hatred

You're life and your death

I'll love you till your last breath

And we've got all the time in the world

To kill

And we're just empty vessels for the words

To fill

Well now that we're sober

I'm coming over

To your side of town

I've written everything down

I'm bringing my notebooks

I'm digging in my hooks

My page is on the floor

You're the one that I wrote it for

Not getting my hopes up

I'm keeping my mouth shut

I don't mind the wait

Oh what's one more day, when

We've got all the time in the world

To kill

And we're just empty vessels for the words

To fill

Fill it up, fill it up

Fill it up, fill it up

Fill it up, fill it uh uh uh uh up

Fill it up, fill it up

Fill it up, fill it up

Fill it up, fill it uh uh uh uh up

I can pull the levers, I can grind the gears

I can bring this contraption to life

Or we can cut the cables and leave it all here

Disappear into the night

If daylight approaches

We won't even notice

We'll crawl under the wire

In our formal attire

Well one thing is for sure

We got we payed for

The pleasure and the pain

They are starting to feel the same

With infinite patience

We'll turn and we'll face this

You'll never be alone

Out into the great unknown

We've got all the time in the world

To kill

And we're just empty vessels for the words

To fill

Fill it up, fill it up

Fill it up, fill it up

Fill it up, fill it uh uh uh uh up

Fill it up, fill it up

(And we've got)

Fill it up, fill it up

(All the time in the world)

Fill it up, fill it uh uh uh uh up

(To kill)

And we're just empty vessels for the words

To fill
