Mississippi

(الألبوم: This Fire - 1996)

I know I'm big and proud all over, not just on the stage
my secret self has many sides
that laugh and crush and sting
I'm red and thick like fire
I like it from behind
round to back
red to white
I'm pure inside and silent

[CHORUS:]
I've got a piece of my heart
on the sole of your shoe
I've got a little bit of thunder
trapped inside of that cloud
that dog in you spit me out into the mississippi

I know who can love my many selves
the wife the bitch the rapunzel?
the one who cries and calls for you
the one who is always alone

[CHORUS:]

oh Mississippi come and wash my pain away
oh Mississippi come and take my pain away
I feel I'm drowning
I feel I'm drowning
I feel I'm...
I feel I'm... dying

[CHORUS x3]
