We had our hearts tricked
We had it all worked out
We had the bad years planned in advance


We had our hearts tricked
We'd worked it out

But then it all fell apart so fast

We watched the wires trip

The power surged
We had it ripped right out of our hands


It took her hostage
And wore her down
We made a wish that no one could grant


And now we're huddled here
Naked sore and cold

It's been severe

She had her heart tricked

She had it all worked out
She had her bad years planned in advance


He had his heart tricked
They had it all worked out
That they had years left of happy romance


But then all the needles
And damage done

In the end just lessened the chance

They had their hearts tricked

The power surged
They had it ripped right out of their hands


And now we're huddled here naked sore and alone
And we can't see clear


Just the thought of this is sickening
To live out all our years without you here
Just the thought of this is sickening


We had our hearts tricked
We had it all worked out

We had the bad years planned in advance

She had our hearts tricked

But the power surged
And she was ripped right out of our hands
All in advance
