Wide eyed, grinning in the darkened room, sipping cactus brandy from a china spoon, coming in the morning
in the afternoon, forgetting
So tired waiting for the end to come, fully dead already but forever young,
hello, my dearest father it's your favorite son, there's some things that I'm regretting
I am destroyer, I am lover, I am destroyer, I am lover
I love one thing, destroy the other. I am destroyer, I am lover.
A gypsy told my fortune and I told her hers
I said "you'll die high in the mountains wrapped in silver furs
You'll be looking for your lover in the midnight sun and you'll perish for your lover when the frost has begun."
I have a way of seeing and it's nearly gone, and nobody was listening so I wrote this song
And when you know the chorus, you can sing along, you destroy the things you love, even though
you know it's wrong.
I am destroyer, I am lover. I am destroyer, I am lover
Why love one thing and not the other?
I am destroyer, i am lover
I am destroyer, I am lover
I am destroyer, I am lover
Why love one thing and not the other?
I am destroyer, i am lover
I am destroyer, I am lover
I am destroyer, I am lover
and when I kiss, I like to smother
I am destroyer, I am lover
"Death to death" (8x)
