Mesopotamia Lyrics

Mesopotamia lyrics

Mesopotamia, Mesopotamia

You fucking give me the creeps

You fucking
give me the creeps

I've never known another city to burn



Face down in the bottom of a river

Swimming with the dead makes me want
to shiver

If you really wanna know, I'd rather just drown alone



Clay fingers reaching for the ceiling

Once numb, now tingling with
feeling

You'll see in the end that nothing really gets away



And I'd give it all just to be with you



Mesopotamia,
Mesopotamia

You fucking give me the creeps

You fucking give me the
creeps

I've never known another city to burn



You took back
the mud from which you're made

And threw it at me like a fucking
grenade

You keep cutting my throat, then you ask me if I'm feelin ok



This city is just like any other

They keep blowing it up, then
building up another

If you look in the hole, you'll see it ain't going
away



And I'd give it all away just to be with you



Mesopotamia, Mesopotamia

You fucking give me the creeps

You
fucking give me the creeps

I've never known another city to burn

City to burn
