Lyrics Mechanical Cabaret - Subtract

Subtract

In order to gain
I’m taking away
The only thing that is mine
I have nothing to lose
I know I’ll win this time

I know there’s still colour
But I am receiving with increasingly
Monochrome eyes
I prefer those black & white scenes because
Everybody lies

I can’t take it today
I can’t take it today
I can’t fake it today
But I can take it away

Well I’m hanging hope on the end of a rope
And I’m drunk
And the words of a boy
Still ring in my ears
And after so many years
What else is there to destroy?

I’m never looking back
There’s nothing to subtract
