She's a special girl you know
The kind I'd hope to see
Hanging on a wall

Watching me cross the street.

I wonder how long it will be

Before I'm sick of her
And I no longer care
Where she goes or has been

'Cause she's the new thing
'Cause she's the new thing
She is the new thing

She is a new thing

She is the new thing

Another new thing
Feel my stomach sink
I cast myself in

She is the new thing
Always a new thing
Staring at her, Alterior girl.


Once she had me on my knees
Enamoured with disease

Now she fails to impress
A different sickness
A different kind of sickness

Lacking any interest.

And I, sunk in apathy, totally absorbed in me,

Sitting vacant on my own, my senses lying prone.
She was the new thing
She was the new thing

She was the new thing
Another new thing


She was the new thing
Another new thing
Feel my stomach sink

I cast myself in
She was the new thing
Always a new thing

Staring at her, Alterior girl.
I cast myself myself in
To whatever she brings

Another new...

With sickness

It ends how it begins
First mine then hers
And then the cycle blurs

As my actions reoccur
Through no fault of my own
Through no fault of my own

Through no fault of my own
Through no fault of my own
Another new thing

Another new thing
Another new thing
Another new...
