-Pre-Chorus -Chorus -Outro LYRICS: (verse) I can't feel this way much longer Expecting to survive With all these hidden innuendoes Just waiting to arrive It's such a wavy midnight And you slip into insane Electric angel rock and roller I hear what you're playin' (pre-chorus) It's an orangy sky Always it's some other guy It's just a broken lullaby (chorus) Bye bye love Bye bye love Bye bye love Bye bye love (verse) Substitution mass confusion Clouds inside your head Involving all my energies Until you visited With your eyes of porcelain and of blue They shock me into sense You think you're so illustrious You call yourself intense (pre-chorus) It's an orangy sky Always it's some other guy It's just a broken lullaby (chorus) Bye bye love Bye g-bye love Bye bye love Bye bye love-ov-ov-ove (verse) Substitution mass confusion Clouds inside your head Were foggin' all my energies Until you visited With your eyes of porcelain and of blue They shock me into sense You think you're so illustrious You call yourself intense (pre-chorus) It's an orangy sky Always it's some other guy It's just a stupid, fuckin' lullaby (chorus) Bye bye love Bye bye love Bye bye love Bye bye love
