Elementary eavesdropper
They're things you cannot comprehend
Did you want a kiss
Did you want a flower in your fist?
Or was it all just make pretend?

I'll follow you until the end
I'll follow

Burning down your home, burning down
Just to rebuild it again, burning down
And I would never steal from you, burning down
Or anyone of your friends, burning down

Adolescent eavesdropper
They're things you wish you could forget
So you start to weep
And you start to drink yourself to sleep
And you only kiss your cigarette

But don't we all feel sick to death
Or do we?

Burning down your home, burning down
Just to rebuild it again, burning down
And I would never steal from you, burning down
Or anyone of your friends, burning down

You shower me with gifts
They don't fix it, no
I'm no purchase bastard
f**k you, tell me right now

If you find me on the offensive
For the first time, help out
Tell me right now
Are you happy and how can you be?
Are you happy with me?

You're an adult eavesdropper
By now the roles have been replaced
And you inflict the shit you hated as a kid
There's only one way to break this curse

Burning down your home, burning down
Just to rebuild build it again, burning down
And I would never steal from you, burning down
Or anyone of your friends, burning down
