 x2
 When I was young
 I first encountered my crippled  lungs
 I felt them burn
 And cursed  them ever since
 I was turning blue
 In a match right in front  of you
 And I slithered  to the floor
 Hope  I score some more
I  won't go  where the sun  doesn't shine
 Go crazy  in the evening  if we sail  upright
Love  is a shadow  in the brightness  it dies
 Because tonight,  we raise the  sun
 And we shine  it over everyone
 If we want  a gradual  hush
 Our lips  should kiss each other so...
I  just want to feel  your body
I  want you to know  your quarry
 You can see the  world
 Looking down from a different  universe
 Can we save every single  one of them
 We only  have five hands
 My father cradled  us
 We're bright blue and we're covered  in blood
 We staggered  through the door
 Trouble  is taking score
I  won't go  where the sun  doesn't shine
 Go crazy  in the evening  if we sail  upright
Love  is a shadow  in the brightness  it dies
 Because tonight,  we raise the  sun
 And we shine  it over everyone
 If we want  a gradual  hush
 Our lips  should kiss each other so...
I  just want to feel  your body
I  want you to know  your quarry
 For the instrumental breaks, just play some stuff based around G.
 I just want to
Feel  your body
 I want you to
Know  your quarry  x2
