Strange Embrace Songtext
von Kitten

I need blessings in the morning
Cause there′s been silverfish crawling across my bed
Since last year at the party when
You kissed that girl with the purple hair, carried her down the stairs
And you should be ashamed
There was a lexical gap between your teeth
Fanatical tongue that knows its worth,
But those words I'd lap up gladly
And you know I always hated that,
To be reminded that I gave you everything

You′re picking her up
Gaining her trust
You're taking too much yeah
It's never enough

And you may have the world under your covers
But you′re still so lonely I can see it in your eyes
When every pretty face is just another
Strange embrace


Just wear your hundred and thirty dollar turtleneck
She′ll probably be into that,
You even sold me on that doctorate
Laughing looking pleasantly interested,
Anticipating accomplishment,
How does it feel to keep your love on a tap?
Lying to yourself everyday
Questions of what it is your worth,
Through a vacuum of neglected x's and o′s
Is intimacy this hollow? Are you sick of the shivering?
I thought you had everything

And you may have the world under your covers
But you're still so lonely I can see it in your eyes
When every pretty face is just another
Strange embrace at the end of the night
And to think I was in love with an illusion
I wonder who you′re fooling this time around
Incapable of feeling for another strange embrace

You're picking her up
Gaining her trust
You′re taking too much yeah
It's never enough

And you may have the world under your covers
But you're still so lonely I can see it in your eyes
When every pretty face is just another
Strange embrace at the end of the night
And to think I was in love with an illusion
I wonder who you′re fooling this time around
Incapable of feeling for another
Strange embrace at the end of the night
