Lyrics
Celia sits and beats her fists on the places where she wants her wings to grow She turns and stands and draws her hands across the mirror when the feathers start to show These are just some things she told me that I believe
When I was 18 I had this dream I knew the history of everyone who stood before me I'd touch their sleeve and they'd beg me please try to help me understand the way the lord has made me I was angry and afraid this was a choice I made I told them
CHORUS: Give me your hand and turn all the lights low Give me the cash and I'll tell you what you should know Why do you weep, why do you weep, I've got a story for you every word of it is true
Now here I sit and I beat my fists across the people who are laying at my feet Your sister Jane in her pain and shame dragged her bed out to the middle of the street Oh Bobby boy what ails you I could tell the world I failed you they'd still nail you
CHORUS: Give me your hand and turn all the lights low Give me the cash and I'll tell you where you should go Why do you weep, why do you weep, I've got a story for you every word of it is true
BR: Forgive me, forgive me but I can't walk behind you any more Forgive me, forgive me, I'm falling towards you don't you know to
CHORUS: Give me your hand and turn all the lights low
Give me the cash and I'll tell you what you should know
Why do you weep, why do you weep, I've got a story for you
every word of it is true
Notes
I wrote this song a loooong time ago and always forget about it. I must have been in my "Am to E" phase or something, and also in my "disturbing imagery" phase, so excuse that please. I'll record and post soon.
