Lyrics (unofficial)

The law of the jungle
Jangles my nerve
And the curve of the earth
Makes me fall for all I'm worth
The sound of the moon
I can hear it from here
Pounding of my blood
Just behind my ear

We played for time
We were made to glow and fade
Decayed of love
I was dismayed with all I forgave you

Audience with the king
I stooped to plead my case
I say almost anything
But I can't look you in the face
Memories sustain
It gained in the cold light
Memory contained
That will never lose its bite

Parade yourself
In the shade where you got jaded
Decayed of love
I was payed out, I was layed out

We played for time
You were made to glow and fade
Decayed of love
I was dismayed with all I forgave you
