Since we're feeling so anaesthetised
In our comfort zone
Reminds me of the second time
That I followed you home
We're running out of alibis
On the second of May
Reminds me of the summertime
On this winter's day
See you at the bitter end
See you at the bitter end
Every step we take that's synchronised
Every broken bone
Reminds me of the second time
That I followed you home
You shower me with lullabies
As you're walking away
Reminds me that it's killing time
On this fateful day
See you at the bitter end
See you at the bitter end
See you at the bitter end
See you at the bitter end
From the time we intercepted
Feels a lot like suicide
Slow and sad, come in silence
Arise a bitter mine
See you at the bitter end
I love to see you run around
And I can see you now
Running to me
Arms wide out
See you at the bitter end
Come on reach inside
Grab the gentleness inside
Heard a cry
Six months time
In six months time
Prepare the end
See you at the bitter end
In our comfort zone
Reminds me of the second time
That I followed you home
We're running out of alibis
On the second of May
Reminds me of the summertime
On this winter's day
See you at the bitter end
See you at the bitter end
Every step we take that's synchronised
Every broken bone
Reminds me of the second time
That I followed you home
You shower me with lullabies
As you're walking away
Reminds me that it's killing time
On this fateful day
See you at the bitter end
See you at the bitter end
See you at the bitter end
See you at the bitter end
From the time we intercepted
Feels a lot like suicide
Slow and sad, come in silence
Arise a bitter mine
See you at the bitter end
I love to see you run around
And I can see you now
Running to me
Arms wide out
See you at the bitter end
Come on reach inside
Grab the gentleness inside
Heard a cry
Six months time
In six months time
Prepare the end
See you at the bitter end

"Clearly?" I'm not sure about that.

His "faux-gay" is what I'd call androgynous:
"Although Molko was brought up in a strict household that disapproved of artistic expression (his father wanted him to become a banker), he rebelled by assuming an androgynous image, wearing nail polish, lipstick, and eyeliner, and listening to punk music. "
He is Bi-Sexual as well so you could be forgiven for thinking it's faux-gay!
As a bisexual, it saddens me that some people think that Brian is being faux-gay for the trendiness or the taboo or whatever. Some of us just like ladies and gents, and act androgynous because... we want to, dammit.

What makes people on here think that discussing and conjecturing about someone's sexuality and trying to label it is an okay thing to do? Uncool.

Overly pretentious rock-pop, used to listen to them before, but now find Molko quite annoying and self-important. And oh yeah, faux-gay too.
They only have two good albums.

Solid 9. I'm not a big fan of their stuff generally but this tune kicks ass.
Bangin'. I like this a lot. Instant 8.
No love for their radio hit??

Don't know these guys at all - is this or other albums worth owning? This is pretty good.
Everbody in my classroom loves this song! (Even the teacher & the ginger kid)
What is all this noise in the early morning?
Yes I am awake now....

definitely a good tempo, dangerous when you're cycling because you end up at the beat.
For those who likes this tempo, I could advise to try "raining in paradize", by Manu Chao

I always remember back to playing SSX3 when I hear this one
There is a fantastic mash up with....someone....and this tune.

more more more!
S-M-O-K-I-N-G!
Totally rocks. . .
Great song, and one of my favorite album covers.
..........

Man, talk about relentless rock! I was exhausted by the time the song ended, and I wasn't even chair-dancing. Gooood schtuff! 
What a great antidote to a triple dose of The Who - rockin' and passionate (sexy and sad album cover, too). If I weren't in a shared office I'd be chair-dancing. 8 from the Nottingham jury.
Living GODS!!!
An awesome track I've always loved. . . great to finally hear it on RP!!!
This song shouldn't be on the never played pile. sort it out, I know 'Whinning Molko' isn't everyones cuppa tea but this is a great track.
This song is amazing, it should be played far more often!
I'd love to hear.... please
what a great song
play pls :)
"Clearly?" I'm not sure about that.
