A Faceless Man

"Haemoglobin," by Placebo

I was hanging from a tree
unaccustomed to such violence
Jesus looking down on me;
I'm prepared for one big silence.

how'd I ever end up here?
must be through some lack of kindness
and it seemed to dawn on me:
haemoglobin is the key to a healthy heartbeat.

at the time they cut me free,
I was brimming with defiance.
doctors looking down on me--
breaking every law of science.

how'd I ever end up here?
a latent strain of colour-blindness
then it seemed to dawn on me--
haemoglobin is the key to a healthy heartbeat.


Now My Feet Don't Touch The Ground.


as they drag me to my feet,
I was filled with incoherence
theories of conspiracy--
the whole world wants my disappearance

I'll go fighting nail and teeth;
you've never seen such perseverance!
gonna make you scared of me,
cause haemoglobin is the key.


haemoglobin is the key to a healthy heartbeat.


Now My Feet Don't Touch The Ground.
