With the conviction of the woman you made me I find Blades of grass from the island you lent me I find On every floor In every drawer Though I'm not an island I'm a body of water Jeweled in the evening a solitary daughter If picked at by noon by midnight I'm ruined Leave me alone to the books and the radio snow Leave me alone to the charcoal and the dancing shadow If each blade of grass was meant here for me Split apart, sliced, and wedged in for me Who's gonna treat it? I'm not going to need it Leave me alone to the books and the radio snow Leave me alone to the charcoal and the dancing shadow I am a lake don't need to be watered I am an ocean I don't need to barter Songtexte 2x I play with the moon my only friend It pushes it pulls me I don't pay rent I don't need the walls to bury my grave I don't need your company to feel saved I don't need the sunlight My curtains don't draw I don't need objects to keep or to pawn I don't want your pity Concern or your scorn I'm calm by my lonesome I feel right at home And when the wind blows I get to dancing My fun is the rhythm of air When it's prancing Leave me alone to the books and the radio snow Leave me alone to the charcoal and the dancing shadow Aus Songtexte Mania
