Piano Magic - Recovery Position lyrics

Is it the shadow in my voice Oh, I can barely form a sigh Is it the music that I make Is it the sadness in my eyes You put me in position As it tells you in the book But I?m a separate chapter You cannot look it up My mother had a crying boy Hung up over the fire I could not bear to see him I would not meet his eye I think that?s why I?m like this The tears they never cease And yet you never see them I keep them all in me I have broken into France I have stolen into Spain I?ve been thrown out of Italy And I?ll be thrown out again The Dutch never liked me much And Germany the same I poisoned half the western world But it never bought me fame
