Imagine This

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Imagine this, a kiss from a stranger Making love to someone that you never even met Holding hands with a man on the subway train Before you even introduce yourself I had a lover, I left her for another Or maybe it was she who left me for another girl I can't quite recall and I thought she'd be appalled But she told me it was all the same to her [Pre-Chorus] Don't be so sentimental, there's really nothing nеw No need to be so modest, no one will noticе you The game is predetermined, this is a ship of fools, oh! [Chorus] And as the sun goes down, the beasts will come around (No one will save us, no one will save us!) We sing the kind of melody that will haunt you in your sleep (No one will save our souls!) And as the night winds down, the monsters gather 'round Who will be the first to offer me to the hounds? "Not me," the voices all agree, so we all await and see [Post-Chorus] And the beasts will feast like they never done did Fillin' up their bellies while they're lickin' their lips And our begging them to stop was the cherry on top, oh! We knew what was waiting for us comin' on down the line But we never seemed to mind, 'til we're totally out of time [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] Imagine this, the fist of a rebel Held up in defiance and thrust into the sky Pretty soon it'll spread and take hold of the heads Of a thousand other simple passerby's If there's one thing that I can depend on If there is a single thing that I can say I've learned What once had a soul, and a purpose, and a goal Will only end up as a logo on a shirt [Pre-Chorus] Don't be so sentimental, there's really nothing new No need to be so modest, no one will notice you The game is predetermined, this is a ship of fools, oh! [Chorus] And as the sun goes down, the beasts will come around (No one will save us, no one will save us!) They sing the kind of melody that will haunt you in your sleep (No one will save our souls!) And as the night winds down, the monsters gather 'round Who will be the first to offer me to the hounds? "Not me," the voices all agree, so we all await and see [Post-Chorus] And the beasts will feast like they never done did Fillin' up their bellies while they're lickin' their lips And our begging them to stop was the cherry on top, oh! We knew what was waiting for us comin' on down the line But we never seemed to mind, 'til we're totally out of time [Instrumental Break] [Outro] And as the sun goes down, the beasts will come around No one will save us, no one here will save us We sing the kind of melody that will haunt you in your sleep No one will save our soul, oh, oh So we will save our own! Woah-oh, woah-oh
