The Smashing Pumpkins
The Everlasting Gaze
[Intro]
You know I’m not dead
You know I’m, you know I’m not dead
You know I’m not dead
You know I’m not dead

[Verse 1]
Now you know
Where I’ve been
As you sleep
Torn I am
Weighted down
Patiently
Born of love

[Chorus 1]
You know I’m, you know I’m not dead
I’m just living in my head
Forever waiting
On the ways of your desire
You always find a way
And through it all
Into us all you move
Forgotten touch
Forbidden thought
We can never have enough
[Hook]
You know I’m not dead
You know I’m, you know I’m not dead
You know I’m not dead

[Verse 2]
Found below
The creatures scream
Stranglehold
A god machine
Begging to
Tear us out
What is hell

[Chorus 2]
You know I’m, you know I’m not dead
I’m just the tears inside your head
Forever waiting
On the ways of your desire
You always find a way
And through it all
Into us all you move
Forgotten touch
Forbidden thought
We can never have enough
You know I’m not dead
[Bridge]
We all want to hold in the everlasting gaze
Enchanted in the rapture of his sentimental sway
But underneath the wheels lie the skulls of every cog
The fickle fascination of an everlasting god

[Verse 3]
You know I’m not dead
I’m just living in my head
Forever waiting
Forever waiting a cruel death
You know I’m not dead
I’m just living for myself
Forever waiting

[Outro]
You know I’m not dead
You know I’m not dead
You know I’m not dead
You know I’m not dead
