I'm leaving out the parts I don't like

Oh I ought to learn, I ought to learn

I can't please myself every time

Bring me sunflowers and bring me a landscape of clouds and rain

Let the sky give up her many heavy-hammered warnings

I'll take her warning

But you assumed, when I left, mommy would wash my body back to you

Back to you

How many things...? How many things can I say to you

And expect shock horror, shock horror, shock horror, hallelujah

To descend again in sweet oblation

Your god's a lion recently fed: drowsy

And the body, the body, the body, the body, the body it waits for obliteration

Come on fire

Don't leave me waiting for the world to replace me

Replace me

Oh, replace me

I'll tell the truth

I have been sleeping with the lights on

Ever since I left you

Since I left you
