From in the shadow she calls
And in the shadow she finds a way finds a way And in the shadow she CRAWLS Clutching her faded photograph my image UNDER her thumb Yes with a message for my heart Yes with a message for my heart She's been everybody else's girl maybe one day she'll be her own Everybody else's girl maybe one day she'll be her own And in the doorway they stay And laugh as violins fill with water Screams from the BLUEBELLS can't make them go away We'll I'm not seventeen but I've cuts on my knees Falling down as the winter takes one more CHERRY TREE She's been everybody else's girl maybe one day she'll be her own Everybody else's girl maybe one day she'll be her own Everyone else's girl maybe one day she'll be her own Rushin' rivers thread so thin limitation Everyone else's girl maybe one day she'll be her own Dreams with the flying pigs turbid blue and the drugstores too safe in their coats anda in their do's yeah Everyone else's girl maybe one day maybe one day one day one day She'll be her own Smother in our hearts a pillow to my dots And in the mist there she rides And castles are burning in my heart And as I twist I hold tight And I ride to work every morning wondering why "Sit in the chair and be good now" and become all that they told you the white coats enter her room and I'm callin' my baby callin' my baby callin' my baby callin' Everybody else's girl maybe one day she'll be her own Everybody else's girl maybe one day she'll be her own Everybody else's girl maybe one day she'll be her own Acoustic piano, vocal, sampled strings, backgrounds - Tori Amos Guitar and bass - Steve Caton Drum and keyboard programming - Eric Rosse Recorded by Eric Rosse Mixed by Jon Kelly |

Excuse me but can I be you for a while
My DOG won't bite if you sit real still I got the anti-Christ in the kitchen yellin' at me again Yeah I can hear that Been saved again by the garbage truck I got something to say you know but NOTHING comes Yes I know what you think of me you never shut up Yeah I can hear that But what if I'm a mermaid In these jeans of his with her name still on it Hey but I don't care Cause sometimes I said sometimes I hear my voice and it's been HERE silent all these years So you found a girl who thinks really Deep Thoughts What's so amazing about really Deep Thoughts Boy you best pray that I bleed real soon How's that thought for you My scream got lost in a paper cup You think there's a heaven where some screams have gone I got 25 bucks and a cracker do you think it's enough To get us there But what if I'm a mermaid In these jeans of his with her name still on it Hey but I don't care Cause sometimes I said sometimes I hear my voice and it's been HERE silent all these Years go by will I still be waiting For somebody else to understand Years go by if I'm stripped of my beauty And the orange clouds raining in my head Years go by will I choke on my tears Till finally there is nothing left One more casualty You know we're to EASY easy easy Well I love the way we communicate Your eyes focus on my funny lip shape Let's hear what you think of me now but baby don't look up The sky is falling Your MOTHER shows up in a nasty dress It's your turn now to stand where I stand Everybody lookin' at you here take hold of my hand Yeah I can hear them But what if I'm a mermaid In these jeans of his with her name still on it Hey but I don't care Cause sometimes I said sometimes I hear my voice I hear my voice I hear my voice And it's been HERE silent all these years I've been here silent all these years Silent all these Silent all these years |

So I ran faster
But it caught me here Yes my loyalties turned Like my ankle In the seventh grade Running after Billy Running after the rain These precious things Let them bleed Let them wash away These precious things Let them break their hold over me He said you're really an ugly girl But I like the way you play And I died But I thanked him Can you believe that Sick Sick Holding on to his picture Dressing up every day I wanna smash the faces Of those beautiful boys Those christian boys So you can make me cum that doesn't make you Jesus These precious things Let them bleed Let them wash away These precious things Let them break their hold over me I remember Yes in my peach party dress No one dared No one cared To tell me where the pretty girls are Those demigods With Their Nine-Inch Nails And Little Fascist Panties Tucked Inside The Heart Of Every Nice Girl These precious things Let them bleed Let them wash away These precious things Let them break Let them wash away These these precious things Let them bleed now Let them wash away These these precious things Let them break their hold over me Precious ... Precious ... |

Snow can wait
I forgot my mittens Wipe my nose Get my new boots on I get a little warm in my heart When I think of winter I put my hand in my father's glove I run off where the drifts get deeper Sleeping beauty trips me with a frown I hear a voice "You must learn to stand up for yourself Cause I can't alyways be around" He says when you gonna make up your mind When you gonna love you as much as I do When you gonna make up your mind Cause things are gonna change so fast All the white horses are still in bed I tell you that I'll always want you near You say that things change my dear Boys get discovered as winter melts Flowers competing for the sun Years go by and I'm here still waiting Withering where some snowman was Mirror mirror where's the crystal palace But I only can see myself SKATING around the truth who I am But I know dad the ice is getting thin When you gonna make up your mind When you gonna love you as much as I do When you gonna make up your mind Cause things are gonna change so fast All the white horses are still in bed I tell you that I'll always want you near You say that things change my dear Hair is grey and the fires are burning So many dreams on the shelf You say I wanted you to be proud of me I always wanted that myself When you gonna make up your mind When you gonna love you as much as I do When you gonna make up your mind Cause things are gonna change so fast All the white horses have gone ahead I tell you that I'll always want you near You say that things change my dear Never change All the white horses |

And if I die today I'll be the HAPPY Phantom
And I'll go chasin' the nuns out in the yard And I'll run naked through the streets without my mask on And I will never need umbrellas in the rain I'll wake up in strawberry fields every day And the atrocities of school I can forgive The HAPPY phantom has no right to bitch Oo who the time is getting close Oo who time to be a ghost Oo who every day we're getting closer The sun is getting dim Will we pay for who we been So if I die today I'll be the HAPPY phantom And I'll go wearin' my NAUGHTIES like a jewel They'll be my ticket to the universal opera There's Judy Garland taking Buddha by the hand And then these seven little men get up to dance they say Confucius does his crossword with a pen I'm still the angel to a girl who hates to SIN Oo who the time is getting close Oo who time to be a ghost Oo who every day we're getting closer The sun is getting dim Will I pay for who I been Or will I see you dear and wish I could come back You found a girl that you could TRULY love again Will you still call for me when she falls asleep Or do we soon forget the things we cannot see Oo who the time is getting close Oo who time to be a ghost Oo who every day we're getting closer The sun is getting dim Will I pay for who I been And if I die today And if I die today And if I die today Chasin' the nuns out in the yard |

China
All the way to New York I can feel the distance Getting close You're right next to me But I need an airplane I can feel the distance As you breathe Sometimes I think you want me to touch you How can I when you build the great wall around you In your eyes I saw a future together You just look away in the distance China Decorates our table Funny how the cracks don't Seem to show Pour the wine, dear You say we'll take a holiday But we never can agree on Where to go Sometimes I think you want me to touch you How can I when you build the great wall around you In your eyes I saw a future together You just look away in the distance China All the way to New York Maybe you got lost in Mexico You're right next to me I think that you can hear me Funny how the distance Learns to grow Sometimes I think you want me to touch you How can I when you build the great wall around you I can feel the distance I can feel the distance I can feel the distance getting close... |

Look I'm standing naked before you
Don't you want more than my sex I can scream as loud as your last one But I can't claim innocence Oh god could it be the weather Oh god why am I here If love isn't forever And its not the weather Hand me my leather I could just pretend that you love me The night would lose all sense of fear But why do I need you to love me When you can't hold what I hold dear Oh god could it be the weather Oh god why am I here If love isn't forever And its not the weather Hand me my leather I almost ran over an angel He had a nice big fat cigar "IN A SENSE" he said "you're alone here So if you jump you best jump far" Oh god could it be the weather Oh god why am I here If love isn't forever And its not the weather Oh god could it be the weather Oh god its all very clear If love isn't forever And its not the weather Hand me my leather |
