It's Hard Enough To Notice
Harder Still To React
Just A Stone's Throw From The Centre Of Our Attention
We All Fade To Black

Save Me From A Villainous Imagination
Deliver Me From My Friends
If I Said Something To Make You Mad
I Will Take It Back

It's Hard Enough To Stomach
But Try To Look Away
Is This A News Report Or A Trailer For A Motion Picture?
It All Fades To Grey

Save Me From A Villainous Imagination
Deliver Me From My Friends
If I Said Something To Make You Mad
I Will Take It Back

Long Lines And Warning Signs
Think Of All The Lives Saved By Plastic Knives
It's Naive, But Make-believe
We Will Never Lose If We Remove Our Shoes

It's Hard To Keep Your Mouth Shut
Harder Still To Make Noise
But We Can't Have The Perfect 20/20 Hindsight
That Our Fate Enjoys

So Save Me From A Villainous Imagination
Deliver Me From My Friends
And If I Said Something To Make You Mad
I Will Take It Back
I Will Take It Back
