Lyrics
Dear blackhole, will you read this?
I lost control at the wheel
I watched the oceans drown every city
From my penthouse suite, I leave the TV on
The sound of the chatter keeps me from getting lonely
All the kids are gone
I’ve been swimming in a pool of money
I’m rich like a dead king, they say
My name rings out on those pathetic streets
A hollow sound, a dead wind on the edge of town
I’ll make them love me
Or I’ll buy and sell their sorry souls
The oil is beautiful – it’s flowing
I don’t feel empty anymore
I live in cold blood, in a house with a thousand doors
When the boiler growls, a hundred tigers keep me warm
I’ll live forever, charge days to my credit card
I own the future, and I own what’s left of yours
Dear blackhole, can you hear me?
We lost control at the wheel
