Memoir Lyrics

	The city lights are beckoning
	Their sirens softly call
	All the fantasists and fetishist
	Are preparing the ball
	When you’ve been stuck here on the doorstep
	With nothing to forsake
	But you might as well be anyone’s to take

	So I give myself to strangers
	Like I gave myself to you
	But the tenderness I felt
	Has been replaced by something new
	And in the orgy I can vaguely hear
	The outline of your call
	But I might as well be anyone’s at all

	Every memory is sailing
	To the kingdom of your soul
	As you patiently await
	I lose all sense of self-control
	You were the lighthouse to my broken boat
	But I left you behind
	Now I might as well be anyone’s to find

	Take my body, take it from me
	It is not worthy of your memory

	I remember you undressing
	As I set myself on fire
	And the funeral was quick
	As I lay lifeless on your pyre
	Well it’s a kind of desperation
	And it’s just something you can’t fake
	Oh I might as well be anyone’s to take

	So I give myself to strangers
	Like I gave myself to you
	But the unity I felt
	has been replaced by something new
	Now I am Helen and I am Mary Jane
	I’m Robert and I am Paul
	Oh I might as well be anyone at all
	Yes I might as well be anyone at all
	Oh I might as well be anyone at all
	Oh I might as well be anyone at all
