Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ecstasy is all you need
Living in the big machine now
Oh, you're so vain
Now your world is way too fast
Nothing's real and nothing lasts
And I'm aware
I'm in love but you don't care
[Verse 2]
Turn your anger into lust
I'm still here but you don't trust at all
And I'll be waiting
Love and sex and loneliness
Take what's yours and leave the rest
So I'll survive
God, it's good to be alive
[Verse 3]
I'm torn in pieces
I'm blind and waiting for
My heart is reeling
I'm blind and waiting for you
[Verse 4]
Still in love with all your sins
Where you stop and I begin, and I'll
I'll be waiting
Living like a house on fire
What you fear is your desire
It's hard to deal
I still love the way you feel
[Verse 5]
Now this angry little girl
Drowning in this petty world
And I'm who you run to
Swallow all your bitter pills
That's what makes you beautiful
You're all or not
I don't need what you ain't got
[Verse 6]
I'm torn in pieces
I'm blind and waiting for
My heart is reeling
I'm blind and waiting for you
[Verse 7]
I'm blind and waiting for you
I'm blind and waiting for you
No I can't believe it's coming true
God, it's good to be alive and I'm still here waiting for you
No, I can't believe it's coming true
I'm blind and waiting for you
