On the Offensive

[Verse 1]

Elementary eavesdropper

There are things you cannot comprehend

Did you want a kiss

Did you want a flower in your fist?

Or was it all just make pretend?

[Refrain 1]

I’ll follow you until the end

I’ll follow

[Chorus]

Burning down your home (burning down)

Just to rebuild it again (burning down)

I will never steal from you (burning down)

Or any of your friends (burning down)

[Verse 2]

Adolescent eavesdropper

There are 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

[Refrain 2]

But don’t we all feel sick to death

Or do we?

[Chorus]

Burning down your home (burning down)

Just to rebuild it again (burning down)

I will never steal from you (burning down)

Or any of your friends (burning down)

[Post-Chorus]

You shower me with gifts

They don’t fix it, no

I’m no purchase bastard

Fuck you, tell me right now

[Bridge]

If you find me on the offensive

For the first time help out

Tell me, tell me right now

Are you happy and how can you be?

Are you happy with me?

[Verse 3]

You’re an adult eavesdropper

And by now the roles have been reversed

And you inflict the shit you hated as a kid

There is only one way to break this curse

[Chorus]

Burning down your home (burning down)

Just to rebuild it again (burning down)

I will never steal from you (burning down)

Or any of your friends (burning down)
