You said the world's a girl And I'm taking her apart And when I cried you said Beggar girl, laugh When my protests went wild You brushed me aside Like the finger of a child When I closed my eyes You took me from the pedestal Down to the abyss My soul was but consumed I thought you were inspired But you were just possessed
Now I have moved on Your face is nearly gone But your words hold me still Silence to my will You said the world's a girl And I'm taking her apart And when I cried you said Beggar girl, laugh Now I have moved on Your face is nearly gone But your words hold me still Silence to my will
