Well, I could break free from theWood of a coffin if I needBut nothin's hard as gettin' free from placesI've already beenI've been waste-deepIn the burnin' meadows of my mindIn the engine in cold DecemberShootin' fire from the hoseNow turn off your lights'Cause I'm not comin' home'Til I'm delivered for the first timeI was first-born to a paradeThat follows in rowsDown a narrow cold black riverFaceless shadows movin' slowI would move swift whenThe sounds of a trumpet would blowI've been the puppet, I've been the stringsI know the vacant face it bringsNow the bells of curfewThey may ring before I'm throughBut soon I'll be delivered for the first timeYou might keep cleanIn the back of an angel motorcadeIt doesn't matter who walks inYou know, the joke is still the sameYou'll just wake upLike a disposable lover, decomposedI've been gone, I've been rememberedI've been alive, I've been a ghostSo now, if downtown explodesI'll still be on this road'Til I'm delivered for the first timeI have drawn blood from the necklineWhen vampires were in fashionYou know I'd even learn to cut my throatIf I thought I could fit in'Cause I, I once heard that you gotta learnHow to blend in to this messWhere nothin's hard, nothin's preciousAnd nothin's smooth or flawlessNow, no more amusedJust screaming to be deliveredFor the first timeNow I'm 10 miles in the deepAnd mighty blue seaLooking back, towards a long white beachBurnin' up into yellow flamesAnd I just wave backLike a little boy up on a pony in a show'Cause I can't fix something this complexAny more than I can build a roseSo just keep on letting go'Cause I must be closeTo being delivered for the first timeNow I'd rather bleed out a long stream from beingLonely and feel blessedWell than drown, laying face downIn a puddle of respectI was once lostIn the corridors of the arena in blindfoldsI've been the bull, I've been the whipI just pulled down the matadorSo now, turn on your lights'Cause I'm comin' homeI've been delivered for the first time
