All along I was searching for my Lenore
In the words of Mr. Edgar Allan Poe
"Now I'm sober and never more
Will the raven come to bother me at home"

Calling you, calling you home
You, calling you, calling you home

By the door you said you had to go
Couldn't help me any, anymore
This I saw coming long before
So I kept on staring out the window

Calling you, calling you home
You, calling you, calling you home

I am a natural entertainer
Aren't we all holding pieces of dying ember?
I'm just trying to remember who I can call
Who can I call?

Ohh, calling you, calling you

I run a secret propaganda
Aren't we all hiding pieces of broken anger?
I'm just trying to remember, who I can call
That I can

Born in a war of opposite attraction
Or is it, or is it a natural conception?
Torn by the arms in the opposite direction
So is it, or is it a modernist reaction?

Born in a war of opposite attraction
Or is it or is it a natural conception?
Torn by the arms in the opposite direction
So is it, or is it a modernist reaction?

Is it like this? Is it always the same?
(Born in a war of opposite attraction)
When a heartache begins, is it like this?
(Torn by the arms in the opposite direction)

Do you like this? Were you always the same?
(Born in a war of opposite attraction)
Will you come back again? Do you like this?
(Torn by the arms in the opposite direction)

So is it, or is it a modernist reaction?
Is it always the same
And will you come back again?
Do you like this?
Oh, do you like this?

Is it like this? Is it always the same?
(Born in a war of opposite attraction)
(Or is it or is it a natural conception?)

If you change your phone number, would you tell me?
(Torn by the arms in the opposite direction)
(So is it, or is it a modernist reaction?)

Is it like this? Is it always the same?
When a heartache begins, is it like this?
If you like this, will you remember my name?
Will you play it again, if you like this?
