Watching Me Fall

I've been watching me fall for it seems like years

watching me grow small, i watch me disappear

slipping out my ordinary world, out my ordinary eyes

yeah slipping out the ordinary me into someone else's life

into someone else's life...

there's a thin white cold new moon and the snow is coming down

and the neon bright tokyo lights flicker through the crowd

i've been drifting around for hours and i'm lost and i'm tired

when a whisper in my ear insatiable breathes

"why don't you follow me inside?..."

yeah the room is small, the room is bright

her hair is black, the bed is white

and the night is always young

is always young... always young

the night is always young...

yeah i've been seeing them strip to the bone in the mirror on thewall

seeing her swallow him whole like it's not me at all

she holds out her hands and i follow her down to my knees

and the sucking inside insatiable smiles

"you will forget yourself in me..."

yeah the room is small, the room is bright

her eyes are black, the bed is white

and the night is always young

and the night goes on and on

and the night is always young

and the night is never over and over and over and over andover...

and this it's gone

and this it's gone

yeah then it's gone

yeah it's a cruel mean cold new day and outside the snow is stillcoming down

and in the blood red tokyo bed i watch me coming round

she pulled him down for hours

deeper than i've ever been

and as i fall in the mirror on the wall

i'm watching me scream

i'm watching me scream

i'm watching me scream

i'm watching me scream

yeah i've been watching me go for it must be years

watching me get slow, i watch me disappear

and one day, yeah i know, i won't come back at all...

and always over and over in his ordinary eyes

i'm watching me fall

i'm watching me fall

i'm watching me fall

i'm watching me fall
