I've been looking for an original sin
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
And since I've done all the old ones
Till they've all been done in
Now I'm just looking-
Then I'm gone with the wind-
Endlessly searching for an original sinYou can dance forever
You got a fire in your feet
But will it ever be enough?
You know that it'll never be enough
You can fly and never need to land
And never need to sleep
But will it ever be enough?
You know that it'll never be enough
It's not enough to make the nightmares go away
It's not enough to make the tears run dry
It's not enough to live a little better every day
Everything that they taught us
Was nothing but lies
Everything that they bought us
Was nothing but bribes
But it'll all be over now-
All I wanted was a piece of the night
I never got an equal share
When the stars are out of sight
And the moon is down-
The natives are so restless tonight
All I needed was a spot in the light
It never had to get so dark
When the stars are out of sight
And the moon is down-
The natives are so restless tonight
I've been looking for the ultimate crime
Infinite victims, infinitessimal time-
And I'm so very guilty for no reason or rhyme
So now I'm just looking
And killing some time-
Endlessly searching for the ultimate crime
You can lose yourself in pleasure
Till your body's going numb
But will it ever be enough?
You know that it'll never be enough
You can always take whatever
You conceivably could want
But will it ever be enough?
You know that it'll never be enough
It's not enough to make the nightmares go away
It's not enough to make the tears run dry
It's not enough to live a little better every day
Everything that they taught us
Was nothing but lies
Everything that they bought us
Was nothing but bribes
But the lies are over now-
All I wanted was a piece of the night
I never got an equal share
When the stars are out of sight
And the moon is down-
The natives are so restless tonight
All I wanted was a spot in the light
It never had to get so dark
When the stars are out of sight
And the moon is down-
The natives are so restless tonight
I've been looking for an original sin
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
And since I've done all the old ones
Till they've all been done in
Now I'm just looking-
Then I'm gone with the wind-
Endlessly searching for an original sin
I'm applying for a license to thrill
Going out on the edge- Moving in for the kill-
They'll be hell to pay someday
So put it all on the bill
Cause we'll always be paying-
And paying untill-
We're beyond expiration
With a license to thrill
