  This time it was your fault
Don't lay the trip on me
We're sailing to Byzantium
Out across a shiftless sea

All that you say you're not
Slave to all you've got
Sad just to hear you lie
Worse to believe it.

A second from infinity
Heaven hangs above our heads
One thought from oblivious and
You forget what you just said

All that you say you're not
Slave to all you've got
Sad just to hear you lie
Worse to believe it.

Sella, leave us nothing
Undine, never leave the sea
I would be a bridge to both
Blister, patch and peel.

All that you say you're not
Slave to all you've got
Sad just to hear you lie
Worse to believe it.
