[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
There's a fragile tension that's keeping us going
It may not last forever, but oh well, it's blowing
[Chorus 1: Dave Gahan]
There's something magical in the air
Something so tragic, we had to care
[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
There's a strange obsession that's drawing us nearer
We don't understand it, it never gets clearer
[Chorus 2: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
There's something mystical in our dreams
So simplistic, it kicks and screams
[Bridge: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Oh well, we're teetering on the edge of collapse
Nothing can keep us down
[Verse 3: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
There's a dizzying feeling that's keeping us flying
Through glittering colours, without even trying
[Chorus 3: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
There's something radical in our hands
Nothing logical to our plans
