Pretend That You're Alone




We are just the monkeys, who fell out of the trees


We are blisters on the earth

We are not the flowers, we're the strangling weeds


In the meadow




And love is just our way of looking out for ourselves


When we don't want to live alone


So step into the vacuum, tear off your clothes

And be born again





Pretend that you're alone now

And everything's gone


Just animal reflex


There's noone looking on

Forget about fashion


Forget about the law


Pretend that you're alone now







I wonder what I'd do, if I could wake up every morning

With a clean slate


I'd burn through the cities, I'd tear through the towns


Cos there's no deals to make

So break out of the cages, the delicate structures


We cling to all our lives


Cos we are just the monkeys, who fell out of the trees

When we were trying to fly





Pretend that you're alone now

And everything's gone


Just primal desire


No right and no wrong

Forget about the future


Forget about blame


Pretend that you're alone now

Pretend that you're alone now




She's not waiting for tomorrow


And she has no love in her eyes

Oh no, I wanna come down right now

But oh no(?), I wanna get out right now




Oh oh!




Pretend that you're alone now

And everything's gone


Just animal reflex

There's noone looking on

Forget about religion


Forget about shame

Pretend that you're alone now




No numbers in your phone now

There's nothing going on

Just primal desire

No right and no wrong


Forget about fashion

Forget about fame

Pretend that you're alone now


Pretend that you're alone now

Pretend that you're alone now



Do do do do...
