Bound together like the crown and sceptre We were made To pursue the highs That only royalty could crave Smoke and neon Quiet stranger Bitter amber We are favoured Burning sugar Emerald nectar This transgressive rite Is our communion Rules of mind and moral Cleaved so recklessly As we plunge into an ocean green Deep as this self-destructive need Sublime intoxication Vice regalia fever dream Nothing matters we are free Free until tomorrow In a ritual union Jaded as the soma we imbibe I will fix you so you break with me For one more night Smoke and neon Quiet stranger Bitter amber We are favoured Burning sugar Emerald nectar This transgressive rite Is our communion And just like all things that shine Found in life first so fine The high is flawed by design As the sun must burn out in time It all fades
