Whenever I see your distant lovelight
I never have the strength to put up a good fight
And I surrender, I surrender every night
As my libido she misbehaves
I become one of your carbon-based love slaves
To your heartbeats and your brainwaves
Call me the victim of a victimless crime
The by-product of a flawed design
And I go down
I go down
Every time
Every time I always fail to see
When love pretends to be what it’s supposed to be
Because the machine, the machine does everything for me
Love’s a rocky road that magically paves
When joining the collection of some missive knaves
To your heartbeats and your brainwaves
And now we see our union’s torn asunder
Our nightclubs yearn for one more punter
And my heart, yeah my heart, is a lonely hunter
And as we dance into our graves,
We remember all those trippy, trippy raves
Hosted by your heartbeats and your brainwaves
And yes I dabble in over-reaction
When confronted with the sciences of attraction
And I go down, I go down
Every time
Heartbeats slowly, slowly pound
Brainwaves transmit underground
And I’m tired, so tired, of going down
Going down
