Lyrics for Hapsburg

On darkest night, you drink in the rain I can't pretend to be the same Like all of you You're not ashamed of who you are As you tear this world apart Hope I find myself You spill your drink over me Your Hapsburg lips glistenin' in the moonlight Unusual models on leather seats In tiny planes bound for lusty isles Humble men in frightenin' frocks Laughin' French actresses The international, the fuck omelette please On darkest night, you drink in the rain I can't pretend to be the same Like all of you You're not ashamed of who you are As you tear this world apart Hope I find myself You shine at the nighttime As the fat duck fuckers live their lives Breakfast at the Berghain Less of what matters Low-information lovers Toastin' the old life Spillin' your drinks on me With your Hapsburg lip I'll be anything you want me to be Look at me, look at me, look at me, look at me Look at me, look at me, look at me, look at me I got a feelin' I wanted to fall I got a feelin' I wanted to fall I got a feelin', I got a feelin' I got a feelin' I wanted to fall I got a feelin', I got a feelin' I got a feelin' I wanted to fall On darkest night, you drink in the rain I can't pretend to be the same Like all of you You're not ashamed of who you are As you tear this world apart Hope I find myself
