Lyrics A Cleaner Light - Kristin Hersh

A Cleaner Light

A high
Thats a swell take on this situation
I was trying to rectify
I was trying to skip out on this high
Keep away from the freaks on the fringe
They only talk to you
cause you give them a good excuse to cry
But in a cleaner light, its ok In a cleaner light, its ok In a better light, its ok In a better light, its ok This strange old sunshine beats me senseless
But its supposed to be keeping me healthy
Its a lie
Youre a strange old thing that keeps me senseless
But youre supposed to be keeping me company
But in a cleaner light, its ok In a cleaner light, its ok In a better light, its ok In a better light, its ok I wake up feeling fragile
Its nothing the tv couldnt cure
Or lying here for my whole life
But in a cleaner light, its ok In a cleaner light, its ok In a better light, its ok In a better light, its ok They only talk to you cause youre there
