Lyrics

Your life a slow and boring suicide
Big bowl of circumstance, that's where you hide
Life can be beautiful, but there's a catch
You need an arsonist, shall I strike the match

Here's the strangest wish I ever wished for lover or a friend
And I'll understand if you misunderstand this wish I send

I wish you chaos and the fire and the wrenching of the womb
I hope some misery grabs you by the neck and drags you from the tomb
And when this life has finished shaking you across the threshing floor
It's not likely that you’ll ever choose the life you had before

Here's the strangest wish I ever wished for someone that I love
But if ever there was someone who this wish was thinking of ...

I wish you chaos and the fire and the wrenching of the womb
I hope some misery grabs you by the neck and drags you from the tomb
And when this life has finished shaking you across the threshing floor
It's not likely that you’ll ever choose the life you had before

Don't think I’m angry or the least upset
I am your biggest fan, your staunch advocate
But sometimes Love's the demolition man who comes upon the scene
And decides to clear the way to build a life as yet unseen

So I wish you chaos and the fire and the wrenching of the womb
I hope some misery grabs you by the neck and drags you from the tomb
And when this life has finished shaking you across the threshing floor
It's not likely that you’ll ever choose the life you had before
