The sake of it all turning me in, Snapping my bones and stripping my skin, Shutting my doors and kicking it in, Back to the end and where to begin? Spies I've got my spies all over town All tell me lies! We're gonna catch you around Spies Twisting my tongue and taking my days, Giving me something second rate, Holding me back from the venom in veins, Second class, second place. Spies Spies Spies Spies

I awake to find no peace of mind I said, "How do you live as a fugitive down here" "Where I cannot see so clear?" I said, "What do I know?" "Show me the right way to go" And the spies came out of the water But you're feeling so bad 'cause you know That the spies hide out in every corner But you can't touch them, no 'Cause they're all spies They're all spies I awake to see that no one is free We're all fugitives, look at the way we live down here I cannot sleep from fear, no I said, "Which way do I turn?" Oh, I forget everything I learn And the spies came out of the water And you're feeling so bad 'cause you know That the spies hide out in every corner But you can't touch them, no 'Cause they're all spies They're all spies And if we don't hide here They're gonna find us And if we don't hide now They're gonna catch us where we sleep Ah, and if we don't hide here They're gonna find us And the spies came out of the water But you're feeling so good 'cause you know That those spies hide out in every corner They can't touch you, no 'Cause they're just spies They're just spies They're just spies They're just spies They're just spies

I've been smoking this cigarette Thinking about drugs About how they ease the minds of many But they take the ones we love No more words Clap hands Chemicals from the sky fall Dreaming of your smile Raining bullets in the dance hall I remember but it's been awhile No more words Clap hands No more words Clap hands If the world was as beautiful as you I would paint the walls in red and just forget the black and blue If the world was as beautiful as you I'd be running down the street trying to catch the perfect view I was thinking back to the day When Jimmy went and bought a gun It started then but ended red Bandanas soaked in blood No more words Clap hands No more words Clap hands If the world was as beautiful as you I would paint the walls in red and just forget the black and blue If the world was as beautiful as you I'd be running down the street trying to catch the perfect view If the world... When you were close to me It wasn't hard to see The good in me in everything If the world was as beautiful as you I would paint the walls in red and just forget the black and blue If the world was as beautiful as you I'd be running down the street trying to catch the perfect view
