Every day and every dark night
So hard to speak without lying
If every birth is the ending
And every life is dying

Here in the spaces
Here in the shadows
Behind the faces
Beneath the souls
Everyone has it
Everyone knows
The dread of eternal love

I take my pills
I drink my drinks
I never stop wondering what people think
I hide in humility by never arriving
I wax the Mercedes I dream about driving

Here in the country
Up in the air
Out on the streets
Everywhere
Everyone has it
Everyone knows
The dread of eternal love
The dread of eternal love

The paint gets peeled off
The paint gets put on
We take off the best suit that we have donned
We walk to the ocean
Full of ourselves
And she takes our soul from its shell
She takes us
She takes us
Oh, she takes us

Here in the spaces
Here in the shadows
Behind the faces
Beneath the souls
I take my pills
I drink my drinks

Forever concerned with what you think
Down in the valley
Up in the air

In San Francisco
Everywhere
Everyone has it
Everyone knows
The dread of eternal love
The dread of eternal love
The dread of eternal love
