Philosopher

(álbum: Jackrabbit - 2015)

When I grow up, I think that I could be an actress
I'll let the camera find the truth in these little eyes
And I could feel what it was like to be electric
And let the people hear me scream and shout with this little mouth

And if I let all my demons out how you would love it
And I would let the makeup run all down my face

I'm a philosopher
I try to put it all behind me
I'm a philosopher
I gotta try to keep it down
I'm a philosopher
No, I'll never let it find me
I'm a philosopher
Gotta control it somehow

And when they're finished with me I could be your lover
And you could try to find the blush of youth in these cheeks
Try to forget what it was like to be electric
And to wink at all the boys at home with these eyes

I'm a philosopher
With these hands
I'm a philosopher
With this mouth
I'm a philosopher
I will rise
I'm a philosopher
Let me out

I'm getting all excited now
But you know when this is over
I'll be looking for a way to let it go
I'm getting all excited now
But it's only for a moment
No you can't hurt what you can't hold

I'm a philosopher
I'm a philosopher
