Fifteen Minutes

Everybody wants to see you broken down by law And everybody wants to see you crippled and diseased Everybody wants to see you broken up by light and day And everybody wants to see you jobless on your knees Maybe I don't wanna be that brutal branch of man And maybe I don't wanna rip this flesh right from the bone And maybe I will feel this burn for years after, years after I pledge my patience in the memory of a stone, of a stone Do you wanna walk by me, bodies moving at your feet Seconds go so fast, could you make fifteen minutes last forever? I remember seeing you dead quiet in your house Choked up on dreams of burning money in the dark This doesn't have to be so cold and angry, cold and angry Self-cut rebellion, it's so cold for all our lives, for our lives Do you wanna walk by me, bodies moving at your feet Seconds go so fast, could you make fifteen minutes last forever? I don't know what you've been told, lovers die but some grow old With you by my side, could I be someone better, so much stronger? Oh was I brave enough to be scared at all Into this pale deliverance we are thrown Try and try oh but you can't get lost And I can't do, can't do this on my own Do you wanna walk by me, bodies moving at your feet Seconds go so fast, could you make fifteen minutes last forever? I don't know what you've been told, lovers die but some grow old With you by my side, could I be someone better, so much stronger?
