Colorfinger - Culver Palms lyrics
rate meI heard the truth about you <br />
And it doesn't really read at all, <br />
Like the whipping stick you raised me with <br />
A scared woman in a private hell <br />
Hushed voice like electric bell <br />
Strange talk about Edgar Cayce <br />
And the long lame walk of the dark 70's <br />
Strange talk about Edgar Cayce<br />
And the long lame walk of the dark 70's <br />
I heard the truth about you, yeah you<br />
Mama they woke me up <br />
I was deep in an idiot sleep <br />
I was just 8 years old <br />
I heard big words with a horrible sound <br />
Mama they called my school <br />
To tell me my mother had a nervous breakdown <br />
<br />
I wish I believed like you do, yeah you<br />
In the myth of a merciful God, in the myth of a heaven or hell <br />
I hear the voices you hear sometimes<br />
Sometimes it gets so much, I feel like letting go <br />
Sometimes it gets so hard I feel like letting it go <br />
Sometimes it gets so Goddamn hard I feel like letting it all go <br />
Letting it all go ( x5 )<br />
<br />
Ran away, went looking for you <br />
back to Culver City and the old neighbourhood <br />
Need to know if you were really gone, <br />
Need to know if you were gone for good <br />
I ran through the projects at night, <br />
Hide in the dark from my friends in the light <br />
Hide from my brother-in-law, <br />
Hide from the things he'd say <br />
Said you weren't losing your mind, <br />
Said you just needed a rest <br />
Said you'd be coming home soon, <br />
Said the doctors there would know what's best <br />
Said that maybe I could go live with them for a while<br />
<br />
I heard the truth about you <br />
I heard the truth about you <br />
I know the truth about you <br />
I know the truth, I know the truth <br />
I know the truth about you <br />
Yeah, they woke me up <br />
I was just 8 years old <br />
Sometimes it gets so hard I feel like letting it go <br />
Sometimes it gets so hard I feel like letting it all go…
