I've been looking for an original sin
|
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
|
And since I've done all the old ones
|
Till they've all been done in
|
Now I'm just looking
|
And I'm gone with the wind
|
Endlessly searching for an original sin
|
|
You can dance forever
|
You've got a fire in your feet
|
But will it ever be enough
|
You know that it'll never be enough
|
And you can fly and never land
|
And never need to sleep
|
But will it ever be enough
|
You know that it'll never be enough
|
It's not enough to make the nightmares go away
|
It's not enough to make the tears run dry
|
And who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men today
|
It's a city of shadow
|
It's a city of lies
|
It's a city of secrets
|
It's a city of crime
|
|
It'll all be over now
|
All I wanted was a piece of the night
|
I never got an equal share
|
When the stars are out of sight
|
And the moon is down
|
The natives are so restless tonight
|
All I needed was a spot in the light
|
It never had to get so dark
|
When the stars are out of sight
|
And the moon is down
|
The natives are so restless tonight
|
|
I've been looking for the ultimate crime
|
Infinite victims, infinitesimal time
|
And I'm so, so very guilty for no reason no rhyme
|
So now I'm just looking and I'm killing some time
|
Endlessly searching for the ultimate crime
|
|
You can lose yourself in pleasure
|
Till your body's going numb
|
But will it ever be enough
|
You know that it'll never be enough
|
You can always take whatever
|
You conceive of if you want
|
But will it ever be enough
|
You know that it'll never be enough
|
It's not enough to make the nightmares go away
|
It's not enough to make the tears run dry
|
And who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men today
|
It's a city of shadow
|
It's a city of lies
|
It's a city of cruelty
|
It's a city of crime
|
|
It'll all be over now
|
All I wanted was a piece of the night
|
I never got an equal share
|
When the stars are out of sight
|
And the moon is down
|
The natives are so restless tonight
|
All I needed was a spot in the light
|
It never had to get so dark
|
When the stars are out of sight
|
And the moon is down
|
The natives are so restless tonight
|
|
Now I'm just looking
|
And I'm gone with the wind
|
Endlessly searching for an original sin
|
I've been looking for an original sin
|
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
|
And since I've done all of the old ones
|
Till they've all been done in
|
Endlessly searching for an original sin
|
I've been looking for an original sin
|
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
|
And since I've done all of the old ones
|
Till they've all been done in
|
Now I'm just looking
|
And I'm gone with the wind
|
Endlessly searching for an original sin
|
|
I'm applying for a license to thrill
|
Going out on the edge, moving in for the kill
|
And there'll be hell to pay someday
|
Put it all on the bill
|
Cause we'll always be paying and paying until
|
We're beyond expiration with a license to thrill
|
|
I've been looking for an original sin
