Oh I won't be your pretty baby;
|
I won't eat from your hand again.
|
And the man in the white says it's alright,
|
He says, come on girl give up the fight.
|
You'll go to sleep, there will be no pain.
|
Well I want to live with myself again.
|
|
Well, where we lived there was a lighthouse,
|
Throwing a white beam into our house,
|
Over my body when I was sleeping,
|
Over the secrets I was keeping,
|
I could tell myself there would be no pain,
|
But I have to live with myself again.
|
|
I'm digging up, I'm digging up,
|
I'm digging up, I'm digging up,
|
I'm digging up, I'm digging up,
|
I'm digging in the earth.
|
|
I'm looking for signs
|
And I'm shaking the dolls
|
And the fairy-tales lied
|
And somewhere, back there
|
I didn't understand;
|
Man and woman and woman and man.
|
And I'm shaking the dolls
|
I'm shaking the dolls.
|
|
Ooh, the dream isn't coming through;
|
I can't feel for you.
|
|
Well somewhere, back there
|
I didn't understand;
|
Man and woman and woman and man,
|
And I'm shaking the dolls
|
I'm shaking the dolls.
|
Ooh I have to live with myself again,
|
I want to be with my body again,
|
You can't make me hollow again.
|
|
Ooh, the dream isn't coming through;
|
I can't feel for you.
|
|
Love, shooting up, through my veins -
|
I gotta get a hit again.
