A round-trip ticket back to Babylon again
Running from my feelings back to where I've been
And what I think is safe
A Fire for the tears between my eyes
Silly girl for making that mistake
Gotta fake it till you die........
And your still the same
And I'm still insane over you
A 5,000 miles away and my Heart remains
Black and over the Ocean Blue...
I took my Black Heart in a box
To see if I could make it new
Weighed the baggage
Turned the locks
Paid the fee and
It's still bruised, I...
Met a boy on a Subway train
On his way to Timbuktu
Let my pass fall through the drain
The rats and rails became My Muse
And your still the same
And I'm still insane over you
A 5,000 miles away and my Heart remains
Black and over the Ocean Blue...
I kissed the Eiffel, let the rust from the steel stain my dress
Watched a Mayan kill the stars, the dust it fell, I cleaned the mess
Little boys they scowered the streets, shooting flowers with guns of air
Smashing ribbons with their feet, I thought of you...
How you never cared...
And your still the same
And I'm still insane over you
A 5,000 miles away and my Heart remains....
Black and over the Ocean Blue.
