Lyrics (unofficial)

[rev. Mar. 24, 2023]

When you wanted it
I was there
When you first went in
No one twisted your arm

When you tasted it like
You've been tasting it your whole life
'Cause you went under
Into unknown

Remember the music
Pulled out of your head
Piano trickery
Into the cans

Insulating guitars
Reptilian bass
Kick in your face
The sear in your heart

You won't get something
Did you make a reservation
You won't get something out of me
For tonight
You won't get something ??? [1:43]
I got no reservation
You won't get something out of me
For tonight

Losing strings in the garden
You finger the cymbals
Gawk at machine heads
Cast off your accounts

Suddenly we had too much
The organs were swelling
The moonbeams were burning
The arrows did fall

Then like the tide went out
The ensemble were dying
A quick end in flourish
But that's another story

Well I got a jet
It's already late
It's already too soon
I'm ready to jam

Your tranquil apartment
The ambient music
Music for love time
Incandescent in [3:52] song

Now I stand empty-handed
At the threshold of silence
The end of performance
The end of a life

You won't get something out of me
Did you make a reservation
You won't get something ??? [4:18]
For tonight
You won't get something out of me
I got no reservation
You won't get something out of life
