We were young heartbreakers estranged from our wealthy parents,

Homosexual sons of unfulfilled fathers.

Divorced from reality, free and young.

We were bashing our brains out on a kitchen cabinet.

         Bm

It was a televised crucifixion.

[Verse]

        Bm

We were star-crossed, we were destitute.

    D

Our words spoke mass destruction.

We watched the sun rise in the morning.

             D

Daughters in arm, we all are orphans.
