lyrics

(I am lovely, Oh mortals, like a dream of stone.)

I think a Goddess wore you, my favorite style of clothes.
You. How was I to know?

Your tactics mark you as an ill-fitting dress, you bitch.

Is it really so hard to love?

I'm waiting for a tailor.
Maybe then I can fly.
Unzip your eye.
One day,
you'll think of me,
at the crossroads,
and if you want me,
I'll still be there,

but you advertise,
you tried to sell me,
you tried to sell me.

Unzip your eyes,
the heart doesn't lie.

Lately, although it's crazy, I'm thinking maybe I'll fly.

I'm waiting for a tailor.
Unzip your eye.
