Iamx - Song Of Imaginary Beings lyrics

rate me

Her mother said that she couldn’t love

The physical way a woman should

Then where else could she could go

Where the sisters and the fathers can’t save her soul

Send them in, see them on

If she can’t find a lover she'll fashion one

Imaginary men, like the burnt out poets in the hinterland

The phoenix says

The doublet says

The serpent says

The siren says

Why use the word, when the word it means to believe

The Hourglass sees

What shelf-life does

She asked exactly: Tell me what is love?

(But breathing life alone-?)

(It's just the words from a prophet, town religious shows-?)

Imagine hurt, imagine tears

She opened up until she disappeared

And vanished hand in hand

With all the long lost children locked in Neverland

"chorus"

Burn for me

Lie for me

Beg for me

Die for me
