THROWING MUSES lyrics : "Green"

You built a city in my head
Then there were candles
And a phoenix burned my bed

These are subwords
These are air


There's one boy
In one house
In one place

At all times
And green eyes


I got no more
Who are you for?
I got no more

What is this?

I shouldn't be smoking

This last cigarette
I feel sick
Now there are words in my head


You took my house
Burned it inside out

Kneel in my ashes
Kneading them


There's one boy
In one house
In one place

At all times
And green eyes


I got no more
Who are you for?
I got no more

What is this?
And now you're leaving again, no


Temper and tempest
To knock at the moon
And the stars come out at night

What's that beyond the floor?
You were left screaming
My hands are in your hair

You're on the deep with the stars(?)

You built a city in my head

Where are your candles?
(...can see my...)
And a phoenix that was you in my bed

These are subwords
These are air
(Turning my body around)


There's one boy
In one house

In one place
At all times
(There's one boy)

And green eyes

I got no more

Who are you for?
I got no more
What is this?


Smoke falls to the ceiling
It begins

There's a man dancing at me
He's making circles
So I will tell you now

(I wear your clothes)
I wear your clothes like armour
(I love your face)

I love your face like God
So you're in love and I'm indebted always
Green eyes
And now you're leaving again
No...
