Island

You think you’re pretty special, don’t you?
Handsome face and faded culture
The devil in the dark

When we talk I’m reminded why
I thought it’d be you to take me high
You were an angel in the night

But when I die, oh, when I die
Don’t waste your flowers on me

And you found yourself another man
Well that’s okay, I understand
I didn’t want you anyway

When I get high I still see you there
With your pretty face and your cultured stare
Oh, and then you just fade away

Oh, when I die, oh, when I die
Don’t waste your flowers on me
Oh, when I go, don’t let me go
Put your arms around me, yeah

‘Cause I don’t want to be an island
But you, you fuel silence

It was you who dug it up
You question why we bothered at all
Because I don’t want to be an island

I forget where I was
And for a moment, I was lost
Oh, I forget where I was
And for a moment, I was lost

No, I don’t want to be an island
No, I don’t want to be an island

You think you’re pretty special, don’t you?
Handsome face and faded culture
The devil in the dark
