Here Comes the War Dept. (Special Disco Version)

My silver tongue turned to Fool's Gold in my mouth
A handshake deal in the Silent Auction House
We'll never hear what they said but we don't have an out
We don't have an out
We don't have an out
We don't have an out
We don't have an out
Oh we heard what they said but we know what they meant
The glasses clink and we
We hang our heads

Nothing ever ever stops
You can bury it just as deep as you want
It's a funeral for an empty box
Sleight of hand
So we can hide us from us
Hide us from us

Our eyes bigger than our stomachs
Our stomachs so full of fear
We know there's a price to pay
And we pay and pay
Forever changing gears
We pay and pay
We pay and pay
We pay and pay
We pay and pay
So we pay until we just mistake it for Love
Of course we know of course we know who's lying to us
Who's been lying to us

Nothing ever ever stops
You can bury it just as deep as you want
Oh just as deep as you want
It's a funeral for an empty box
Sleight of hand
So we can hide us from us
Hide us from us
Nothing ever ever stops
You can bury it just as deep as you want
Oh just as deep as you want
It's a funeral for an empty box
Sleight of hand
So we can hide us from us
Hide us from us
And nothing ever ever stops

We restored the painting till the old one's all gone
We restored the painting till the old one's all gone
Of course we know of course we know we can't go back home
We can't go back home

In my head it's always a city at night
No one to call but the lights burn cold and bright
This feeling could eat me alive
This feeling could eat me alive

This feeling could eat me alive
Feeling this feeling could eat me alive
This feeling could eat me alive
Feeling this feeling could
Feeling this feeling could eat me alive

Louder bombs always building bigger walls
We're safe for a while until the next one drops
This feeling could eat me alive
Feeling this feeling
Feeling this feeling
Feeling this feeling could eat me alive

Louder bombs always building bigger walls
And over again
And over again
Here's another shout that won't get through at all
And over again
And over again
Bass thump, sales pitch, jingles playing at the mall
Another little bomb, another little wall
And over again
And over again
We smuggled a criminal in to the heart
And over again, and over again
And over again, and over again
And over again, and over again
And over again
Oh Mass Appeal, oh Mass Effect
This feeling will get me in the end
Oh Mass Appeal, oh Mass Effect
This feeling will get me in the end
Oh the trumpet will sound and the wall will fall
The suspense will kill us if we can wait that long
