I've got this madman in my mind
This prolific designer
And he's working overtime
And he gets all wired up
Higher and higher as we fly
We're Poets of the Fall
Perfect, near fatal headlong dive
A blueprint for life
Blueprint your life
Aggressively primal cultural high
This mental Versailles
Is much grander than the lies
You tell yourself to get through the night
Sentenced to drama for life
He tears a stampede through my head
Wild and horny
Just one chance to kill it dead
But I will embrace it
Into the darkness on we ride
To gamble is all
Perfect, near fatal headlong dive
A blueprint for life
Blueprint your life
Aggressively primal cultural high
This mental Versailles
Is much grander than the lies
You tell yourself to get through the night
Sentenced to drama for life
If all the isms and doctrines of life
Were a gentle breeze instead of that usual judgmental freeze
Would we all be as easily shanghaied to their cause
As now we seem to object to every clause
And would we have that unerring nerve to go after our deepest desires
With a similar verve
Who would it serve?
Perfect, near fatal headlong dive
A blueprint for life
Blueprint your life
Aggressively primal cultural high
This mental Versailles
Is much grander than the lies
You tell yourself to get through the night
Sentenced to drama for life
This prolific designer
And he's working overtime
And he gets all wired up
Higher and higher as we fly
We're Poets of the Fall
Perfect, near fatal headlong dive
A blueprint for life
Blueprint your life
Aggressively primal cultural high
This mental Versailles
Is much grander than the lies
You tell yourself to get through the night
Sentenced to drama for life
He tears a stampede through my head
Wild and horny
Just one chance to kill it dead
But I will embrace it
Into the darkness on we ride
To gamble is all
Perfect, near fatal headlong dive
A blueprint for life
Blueprint your life
Aggressively primal cultural high
This mental Versailles
Is much grander than the lies
You tell yourself to get through the night
Sentenced to drama for life
If all the isms and doctrines of life
Were a gentle breeze instead of that usual judgmental freeze
Would we all be as easily shanghaied to their cause
As now we seem to object to every clause
And would we have that unerring nerve to go after our deepest desires
With a similar verve
Who would it serve?
Perfect, near fatal headlong dive
A blueprint for life
Blueprint your life
Aggressively primal cultural high
This mental Versailles
Is much grander than the lies
You tell yourself to get through the night
Sentenced to drama for life
