Album: Fossils and Other Phantoms
I'm gonna go down town I'm gonna find myself some fun
I'm gonna go down town, I'm gonna find myself someone
Forget your hair forget your smell until there's none
I couldn't bear to sit and stare until they're gone
I'm preying to gods I never need
Saying I, I won't go out quietly
So I went down town and I found myself someone
Without your hair without your smell without your love
Found someone new to make me blue now that we're done
I couldn't stay to watch you grey and fade away like everyone
And now I'm preying to gods I never need
Saying I, I won't go out quietly
I'm preying to gods I don't believe
Saying you, you won't take me quietly
Ma mama she gave me these lungs
My papa he gave me this tongue
Ma mama she gave me these lungs
My papa he gave me this tongue
So I went down town and I found myself someone
Without your hair, without your smell without your love
We're only young for just this once and then we're done
I couldn't stay to watch you grey but know I see your face in everyone
I'm preying to gods I never need
Saying I, I won't go out quietly
I'm preying to gods I don't believe
Saying please, won't you bring her back to me
