Velour my velvet my chain
Lux been twisted round my brain
Feel like I’m going insane
Insomniac drowning the pain
Velour my velvet my chain
Heavy come down with the rain
Body can’t cope with the pain
Velour my velvet my chain
Body can’t cope with the pain
Twist over back for the same
Hang from the wind
My breath
Hide from my face
My wish
The stars fall near
My feet
I take a step
I take a step
Catastrophe come
My dream
Is my living
I see in the dark
I am with everyone
When the time draws near
When the time draws near
I hear the words
My hand in trees (Velour my velvet my chain)
Stars blow by (Lux been twisted round my brain)
I sleep and walk (Feel like I’m going insane)
Dream and talk (Insomniac drowning the pain)
My wish (Velour my velvet my chain)
To be at home (Heavy come down with the rain)
In the wind (Body can’t cope with the pain)
To have no face (Velour my velvet my chain)
To be in the stars (Body can’t cope with the pain)
To step in dark (Twist over back for the same)
To fall apart
Velour my velvet my chain
Lux been twisted round my brain
Feel like I’m going insane
Insomniac drowning the pain
Velour my velvet my chain
Heavy come down with the rain
Body can’t cope with the pain
Velour my velvet my chain
Body can’t cope with the pain
Twist over back for the same x4
