| Tried to hang on to myself
|
| Don’t believe in no-one else
|
| And I’m shakin' like a leaf
|
| as I fall into the street
|
| But the girl with X-Ray eyes,
|
| she’s gonna see through my disguise
|
| Going nowhere down a hill,
|
| It’s hard to swallow, like the pill
|
| that was twisted on your tongue
|
| by the seed of the standing still
|
| There was no-one to be seen,
|
| no-one left to hear my scream…
|
| So she took me by the hand
|
| We followed clues left in the sand
|
| as she swallowed space and time
|
| We gathered, pulled, and swam
|
| She shot me to the sun,
|
| like a bullet from the gun…
|
| When the deed was done,
|
| in the morning she was gone
|
| Turn the page and let it go
|
| like your mother told you so
|
| Life, it stretches on for miles
|
| The truth is on your stereo
|
| The girl with X-ray eyes
|
| she’s gonna see through your disguise |
