You said you couldn't help yourself
That you were gonna have to take me apart
I told you that I wasn't scared
But I was up inside my head while
You were riffling through my heart

Sometimes, when you're in suspense
Oh you're really gonna swing
But you need not look for further evidence
When you are dangling from a string

I told you I would protect you
Before I blacked out in fear
And then awoke in your arms
You said you would swallow me whole
But you were trapped inside the belly
Of a beast with many charms

Now we both crave solace and
Misery loves company
But how will we ever 
Get through this world together
On these upended feet?

(chorus)
Hanging upside down
'Tis the cards that brought us here to drown
In the wind and the mist
And the touch and the kiss of destiny
Hanging upside down 
We may never again touch the ground
Let us cling together and stare at the stars 
From the depths of the sea

I thought that I was so smart
Because I never missed an opportunity
To take advantage of an angel
Because everyone knows that angels
Have no memory

Oh so many hungers that
I had submitted to
But ever since you swung into my dreams
All my memories are inside you

(chorus)
