If I could painlessly murder us all
Then there would be no more children crying
To our deaf God up above

If I could painlessly murder the world
Then there would be no more children crying:
Then there would be no more children crying at all

I want to hide in an opium sunrise
I'd rather fly than feel the pain
I want to die in a heroine sunrise
Go on and spike my vein

So sick there is a snatch of an old song
Blaring inside my head but I know I ain't dead, no
This can't be hell: I'm way too cold, I'm shivering
The cold sweat is like broken glass;
Isn't this a gas? Come and join the party!

Baby to his mother:
Please smother me now
Baby to her mother:
Please smother me now

I want to hide in an opium sunrise
The world is burning
I'd rather fly than feel the pain
The world is burning
I want to die in a heroine sunrise
The world is burning me
Go on and spike my vein
