Drama for Life - Poets Of The Fall

I’ve got this madman in my mind, this prolific designer

And he’s working overtime, and he gets all wired up

Higher and higher as we fly

We’re Poets of the Fall

Perfect, near fatal headlong dive

A blueprint for life, blueprint your life

Aggressively primal cultural high

This mental Versailles is much grander than the lies

You tell yourself to get through the night

Sentenced to drama for life

He tears a stampede through my head, wild and horny

Just one chance to kill it dead, but I will embrace it

Into the darkness, on we ride

To gamble is all

Perfect, near fatal headlong dive

A blueprint for life, blueprint your life

Aggressively primal cultural high

This mental Versailles is much grander than the lies

You tell yourself to get through the night

Sentenced to drama for life

If all the isms and doctrines of life were a gentle breeze

Instead of that usual judgmental freeze

Would we all be as easily shanghaied to their cause

As now we seem to object to every clause

And would we have that unerring nerve

To go after our deepest desires with a similar verve

Who would it serve?

Perfect, near fatal headlong dive

A blueprint for life, blueprint your life

Aggressively primal cultural high

This mental Versailles is much grander than the lies

You tell yourself to get through the night

Sentenced to drama for life
