Ice Cream Piano

Fuck the world, you said it quiet
No one could hear you, no one but me
Cynical, you can't deny it
You don't want to win this war 'cause you don't want the peace
Armistice, we never tried it
You're the soldier, I'm police
Listen, baby, we can't deny it
You don't want to win this war 'cause you don't want the peace

The word was weaponized as soon as it had passed your lips
I am a gentleman, I refuse to show my gentleness
Fuck around and find out, the angry child recites this every day
The universe will pry out, the truth which is you've got nothin' to say

In dreams, I scream piano, I softly reach the high note
The world don't recognize a singer who won't sing

You talk of Serbians, whisper Kosovar Albanians
The boy's Romanian, third generation Transylvanian
I see the vampires walkin', don't be gripped by fear, you aren't next
We're all the sons and daughters of vampires who drained the old world's necks

In dreams, I scream piano, I softly reach the high note
The world don't recognize a singer who won't sing

In dreams, I scream piano, I softly reach the high note
The world don't recognize a singer who won't sing
