The Jekyll-Hyde of you I can't survive the tide of you The vicious style of love, the whining Pits and pendulums of lying I don't see how you survive in Hard-line worlds you're advertising Sneaky features, pacing, waiting City sex is so frustrating
Chorus:
Young savage Young savage Thinks like a steel wall Stinks like a dance hall Young savage Young savage Anything goes where no-one knows your name
The mirror love of vixens Guess who'll wear the mask of victim Money rents you insulation Tenderness asphyxiates you Someone else's flesh to borrow Sling it from your bed tomorrow Live too fast for love or sorrow Look behind the face it's hollow
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
The broken heart of you Who stole the stolen parts of you Changing blossoms into fists And taking bites from every kiss The past is dead, tomorrow's too far All the chemicals the bars Coloured hair and cheap tattoos impale you on their points of view
(Chorus)
Condemned to be a stranger Subway dweller, dead-end agel kicking through the dust of friends Who never gave, they'd only lend Every sneer is thrown away With practised gestures of disdain The outlaw stance is so pedantic Hate the world, it's so romantic
