Platinum - Momus

If I told the truth I’d like to live my life again

Walk around my youth in somebody else’s skin

One life’s not enough for all that we contain

Nothing’s going to save us now

Let’s go back in time and see what bridges we can burn

Kick over our tracks on the eternal return

Throw away the facts and figures — we never learn

Nothing’s going to save us now

Take me to the place where my decisions are relived

Give me answers to the question

'What would have happened if…'

Beyond the third dimension, beyond the fourth and fifth

In a parallel universe

Hey DJ you’ve got it all wrong

No more golden greats, no more platinum songs

Put these frozen moments in the fridge where they belong

Nothing’s going to save us now

I don’t say that life’s not sad and death is not the end

Looks like you got typecast by a double-crossing friend

Looks like we were here before and we’ll be back again

In a parallel universe

No regrets at least not yet is all that we can say

Stand-ins for ourselves in life’s identity parade

Gone the crimes that you committed, gone the things you made

To a parallel universe

Hey DJ you’ve got it all wrong

No more golden greats, no more platinum songs

Put these master tapes back in the safe where they belong

We’ve got to live the hallelujah now

So let’s go

Walk the city streets with me and cross a thousand lives

Count the possibilities that shine in people’s eyes

Ask how many dreams we kill to keep our dreams alive

We’ve got to live the hallelujah now

Thank you for the memory, the curse you laid on me

Like a shooting star I burst into obscurity

Live this second first because the rest is history

Nothing’s going to save us now

Hey DJ you’ve got it all wrong

No more greatest hits, no more platinum songs

Put these little shits back in the ground where they belong

Nothing’s going to save us now

If I told the truth I’d like to live my life again

Walk around my youth in somebody else’s skin

One life’s not enough for all that we contain

We’ve got to live the halellujah now

So let’s go
