lyrics
for them i'll feign surprise till my eyebrows are numb
till my eyebrows are numb
The moment you walked in, I could feel a difference
in the air we breathe
Dull paintings on the wall
Painted by the friend of a friend
Dull paintings on the wall
Painted by the friend of a friend
I lost my head that night
And I'll lose it again
Just to bury the roots
Just to cover the tracks
The rain it came along
I never saw the sun until then
Models with cotton filled heads
Hands sewn on with silver thread
With silver thread
I didn't know where to begin
Mercury, dance with me, dance with me
I lost my head that night
And I'll lose it again
Just to bury the roots
Just to cover the tracks
The rain it came along
I didn't see the sun until then
The rain came along
Just to muddy them
Stars went black
when the flashbulbs shattering
I guess that's how it is
Your eyes, they adore
till my eyebrows are numb
The moment you walked in, I could feel a difference
in the air we breathe
Dull paintings on the wall
Painted by the friend of a friend
Dull paintings on the wall
Painted by the friend of a friend
I lost my head that night
And I'll lose it again
Just to bury the roots
Just to cover the tracks
The rain it came along
I never saw the sun until then
Models with cotton filled heads
Hands sewn on with silver thread
With silver thread
I didn't know where to begin
Mercury, dance with me, dance with me
I lost my head that night
And I'll lose it again
Just to bury the roots
Just to cover the tracks
The rain it came along
I didn't see the sun until then
The rain came along
Just to muddy them
Stars went black
when the flashbulbs shattering
I guess that's how it is
Your eyes, they adore
