Houdini Blues |
I see you there with your long black hair |
Glowing viper eyes and pale skin |
The one who took the father of my friend |
Crawled under his skin and made him beg for it |
Or when you stole my friend |
Put the rope around their neck and kicked the chair from their feet |
I awoke when you tried to take my brother |
The right pill couldn’t put him right to sleep |
I’m floating on my own |
I’m floating on my own |
I’m floating on my own |
(So just let me go) |
I know what hiding is |
Know what surviving is |
I know what dying is |
(I tried to kiss her twice) |
So, you are a magician? |
Or so they say |
Well perform light as a feather stiff as a board |
Sold out shows for life until death |
But somehow I’m not impressed |
Take off your mask, no need for costumes |
And look me in my face |
I was there when you dug her grave |
And stripped her of her dancer’s grace |
Remember I laid in her bed |
And held her hand when you made her feel she wasn’t thin enough |
While her hair fell out and her bones showed |
Made her believe she didn’t want to live enough |
I’m floating on my own |
I’m floating on my own |
I’m floating on my own |
(So just let me go) |
I know what hiding is |
Know what surviving is |
I know what dying is |
(I tried to kiss her twice) |
So, you are a magician? |
Or so they say |
Well perform light as a feather stiff as a board |
Sold out shows for life until death |
But somehow I’m not impressed |
This dark needs to be illuminated |
I’ll gladly kick over these candles to light up this room |
I’ve flirted with you my whole life |
You stayed out of reach, just close enough so your touch would loom |
When everyone around me grew into |
Mothers and fathers, brides and grooms |
I asked you to dance but you denied me the chance |
You took my friend |
Shot through his windshield car, wrapped 'round a pole |
I’m floating on my own |
I’m floating on my own |
I’m floating on my own |
(So just let me go) |
I know what hiding is |
Know what surviving is |
I know what dying is |
(I tried to kiss her twice) |
So, you are a magician? |
Or so they say |
Well perform light as a feather stiff as a board |
Sold out shows for life until death |
But somehow I’m not impressed |
