[00:17.26] |
They ask for more |
[00:19.28] |
What do you think this fan club is for? |
[00:23.83] |
I slithered up each rose corridor |
[00:28.30] |
I kept a warm, safe place at my core |
[00:32.74] |
Before I lost it |
[00:35.24] |
|
[00:35.44] |
They ask for blood |
[00:37.41] |
What do you think this woman's made of? |
[00:41.77] |
I stuck a small, thin pin in my thumb |
[00:46.28] |
They dreamt a low, long line to be crossed |
[00:51.00] |
And I crossed it |
[00:53.10] |
|
[00:53.33] |
I'm alive |
[00:55.72] |
But a different kind of alive |
[01:00.13] |
Than the way I used to be |
[01:03.99] |
|
[01:06.76] |
I retire to a split, white smile to be seen |
[01:13.13] |
In some old stag magazine |
[01:19.78] |
And this girl's eyes, |
[01:22.05] |
when they were roughly wrenched open |
[01:26.29] |
I could see a starry stair up your thigh |
[01:30.56] |
You hid behind your hair |
[01:32.95] |
Oh, but I saw you smiling |
[01:37.75] |
While all these guys, all these curious sets of eyes |
[01:44.17] |
Safe behind a tv screen |
[01:50.53] |
I let them pry, pick apart and hang up to dry |
[01:57.33] |
almost every piece of me |
[02:01.32] |
|
[02:07.24] |
If you don't love me, I'm sorry |
[02:09.98] |
|
[02:27.45] |
Oh, what a trip |
[02:30.02] |
Oh, what a shimmering silver ship |
[02:34.42] |
Oh, what a hot half-life I half lived |
[02:38.86] |
Oh, and the stripes and stars, |
[02:41.28] |
how they stripped off the siding |
[02:45.60] |
When my life ripped |
[02:47.74] |
Off from the part that played as a kid |
[02:52.16] |
Into the part that plays through your lips |
[02:56.52] |
To find a warm, safe place and sit curled up inside it |
[03:03.51] |
|
[03:03.70] |
So, here's goodbye |
[03:05.68] |
From the part that's staying behind |
[03:10.02] |
To the part that has to leave |
[03:16.41] |
To the sublime lips that were never spoiled by lying |
[03:22.98] |
But to the face inside the being |
[03:29.63] |
Who wasn't me |
[03:33.96] |
Who wasn't me |
[03:35.80] |
Oh, no, no |
[03:37.39] |
She's not me |
[03:40.94] |
Oh, oh |
[03:58.73] |
|
