Darah Golub - Salome lyrics

(1, 2, 3, 4) [Verse 1] I fell in love with this fish She got caught in my mesh Treading water on the surface of the bottomless depths I guess A diamond's nothing but a rock with a name Took it to the pawn shop off of Providence Lane The song's solemn Sweet, sinful, serpentine Dug a ditch for my severed head and fled the murder scene Saw me making progress Saw me do my thing Subtle magic that could turn a peasant to a king Saw me drift gently down a stream in a dream state And reawaken with a child's smile and a clean slate Say something Touch a nerve Make a mean face We would argue every day for a week straight They say it's all for the best I don't disagree She's throwing sh** at me I'm screaming like Kid Capri Sweet Misery Physically Sick Heedless Let me live my life how I see fit [Hook] I saw the light that day Like we don't ever have to live our lives that way Salome, lead me down the right pathway Take my head, watch the light cascade You suffer, you cope You move, you shake You fall in and out of love You play the game You makes mistakes You split, you break You find what you're looking for and move on New day, new dawn You were gone too long [Verse 2] Love is a very strange thing Amputate the limb it's infected with gangrene My queen shook me out of a dream Something's out of place She said, "It's for the best..." And vanished without a trace We're all trying to self-awaken Or let ourselves go Self-medicate Self-indulge And self-loathe I was somewhere in the second circle when Hell froze Lost all control of self Moving in stealth mode Right place, right time Bright lights, white lines Everything's great Everything's great Clean slate Drifting gently down a stream Dream state Everything's great Everything's great You're a universe But you don't know your own depths Time we shed our old flesh And covetousness We're in the home stretch Some people got heads like Olmecs And hollow eyes for crows to peck 'til the eagle dies a slow d**h I'm making progress See me do my thing Subtle magic that could turn a peasant to a king See me drift gently down a stream in a dream state And reawaken with a child's smile and a clean slate [Hook] I saw the light that day Like we don't ever have to live our lives that way Salome, lead me down the right pathway Take my head, watch the light cascade You suffer, you cope You move, you shake You fall in and out of love You play the game You makes mistakes You split, you break You find what you're looking for and move on New day, new dawn You were gone too long
