Say what you want but I guess I had [bad word] Sold me a dream and a lie that kept [bad word] Out of the fire into the soulless heart of the city
screaming out for justice

I was the lover that she never wanted
She was the headache that I never needed
Born in the city summer nights in wonder
Lost in the glory then she turned me over

Here's to the magic here's to the blindness
Here's to the mayhem trail left behind us
I no one's hero, she no one's princess
Danced like a fire, burning in the darkness
I saw the end before the beginning
Magic and mayhem, love kept us spinning

My finest hour, her longest nightmare,
Days turned to minutes, luck [bad word] me out there
Locked in the silence, thrown out in the thunder,
Drowned in the lust and defeated in the wonder
I took what I could nobody could fault me [bad word] and thieves done everything to warn me
She took my wits and all that she could carry
Stole half my voice and locked it where I don't see

Here's to the moment here's to the worst night
Here's to the broken electric moonlight
She was the punch line I was the bad joke,
Under the stars her thick promises broke
I saw the end before the beginning,
Magic and mayhem just keeps on winning

Restlessly, helplessly stranded where I used to be
Our nights had changed, drowned in fire
Frozen with a fools desire
Say something, say something, say what you want
But it's all crashing down on me

Here's to the magic here's to the blindness
Here'e to the mayhem trail left behind us
I no one's hero, she no one's princess
Danced like a fire, burning in the darkness
I saw the end before the beginning
Magic and mayhem just keeps on winning
Once imitated never forgotten
Restlessly fated and mis begotten

Here's to the moment here's to the worst night
Here's to the broken electric moonlight
I no one's hero, she no one's princess
Danced like a fire, burning in the darkness

I saw the end before the beginning,
Magic and mayhem love kept us spinning
