Your Hands

(album: Killing Heidi - 2004)

Sunlight magnifies the pieces of her broken life
She says everything is fine, in her head, in her head
She's anaesthetised

Now she'll go high and low
Look for a place to go
And maybe she'll say to me that she knows
This is apparition, just an echo
Something that's gone and you've got let go
This is just a nightmare
You can keep there a secret that you don't want me to share

Don't you over analyse
Don't be so fucking hypnotised
I'm well, everything is fine, let go of my hand, of my hand
I'm anaesthetised

Now she'll go high and low
Look for a place to go
And maybe she'll say to me that she knows
This is apparition, just an echo
Something that's gone and you've got to let go
This is just a nightmare
You can keep there a secret that you don't want me to share

Apparition, just an echo
Something that's gone and you've got to let go
That is a nightmare
Can keep there
Thought that you could take it but you can't anymore

Oh you know you gotta be the best
Before they put you to the test
And they tell you you're just like all the rest
So don't bother, no time to get upset
Just make a beeline for the queue where they administer to you
A special number for your face, a ticket to a higher place
Shadows aren't the only ones who ever feel alone
When you take a dress up box and turn it into your home
In the feathers and the dust the crowd pleasers are a must
But you never ever stop, don't you let your guard drop
They'll be waiting in the wings with all the shiny and pretty things
And they tell you what you want to hear
Everything in everything
Ooh-ooh woah, ooh-ooh woah, ooh-ooh woahhh

This is apparition, just an echo
Something that's gone and you've got to let go
This is just a nightmare
You can keep there a secret that you don't want me to share

Apparition, just an echo
Something that's gone and you've got to let go
This is a nightmare
Can keep there
I thought that you could take it but you can't anymore
