The Chemicals Between Us Lyrics

[Chorus]
The chemicals between us
The walls that lie between us

Lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonelier fate
Than lying in this bed
The chemicals between us
The chemicals between us
Lying in this bed

[Bridge]
We're of hollow men
We are the naked ones
We never meant you harm
Never meant you wrong
And I'd like to thank
All of my lovers, lovers, lovers, lovers, lovers, lovers


[Chorus]
The chemicals between us
The army of achievers

Lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced
There is no lonelier state
Than lying in this bed
The chemicals between us
The chemicals between us
Chemicals
[Ending]
The chemicals between us
