Pity Dance Songtext
von DM Stith

I'm leaving out the parts I don't like
oh I ought to learn, I ought to learn
I can't please myself every time
bring me sunshowers and bring me a landscape of clouds and rain
let the sky give up her many heavy-hammered warning
I'll take her warning
but you assumed, when I left, mommy would wash my body back to you
back to you


How many things...? How many things can I say to you
and expect shock horror shock horror shock horror hallelujah
to descend again in sweet oblation
your god's a lion recently fed: drowsy
and the body the body the body the body it waits for obliteration
come on fire
don't leave me waiting for the world to replace me
replace me

I'll tell the truth
I have been sleeping with the lights on
ever since I left you
