I held a seance for the state you're in

Begged absolution

For your mortal sin

It went dark

It didn't seem normal

​

I cast around for a shadow of doubt

I saw you screaming

But heard nothing come out

It went cold

Then nothing was normal

​

You said that love's the master key

Then warned that nothing ever comes free

​

There's something dying

In the smile that you wore

It feels like something I saw die once before

Is it me?

Is this paranormal?

​

It's bright tonight 'cos the fake stars are out

The fans are screaming

Who knows what it's about?

It's so sad

These zombies are normal

​

You said that love's the master key

Then warned that nothing ever comes free

But you would gladly sell it to me

To me

​

Your eyes were empty

When the sea turned to blood

The sons of evil knew

Their motives were good

It was bad

But perfectly normal

​

I can't forget the last words that you said

You'd rather be alive than be living dead

It went dark

But perfectly normal

​

You said that lust is the master key

Then warned damnation always comes free

And you would gladly give it to me

To me

​

I cast around for a shadow of doubt

I saw you screaming

But heard nothing come out

It went cold

Then nothing was normal

​

You said there's something coming for me

You said you'd never, ever be free

To me, to me, to me
