Charlotte Gainsbourg - Looking Glass Blues lyrics

rate me

<br>

Think I'd like to climb down in a hole<br />

down in the bottom of the world below<br />

twist myself back out of sight<br />

looking glass says have a look inside<br />

<br />

drink a little bottle and I disappear<br />

smaller I grow, smaller all my fears<br />

I can fit inside the heard of anywhere<br />

looking glass blues and I don't care<br />

<br />

time ticks backwards and the day is null<br />

borrowing dreams from a buying ground<br />

stranded on a chest board, I can't move<br />

and I don't even want to sing these backwards blues<br />

backwards blues <br />

backwards blues<br />

<br />

what can you see through a looking glass<br />

the opposite of everything that you can't have<br />

you can't have<br />

good or bad<br />

<br />

I see what exists outside myself<br />

the absence of something that I know to well<br />

<br />

now the fear is reaching like a hand in a glove<br />

the ugliest thing inside a heard you can think of<br />

<br />

I walk through a key big as the sun<br />

past all meanings and the things we've done<br />

counterfeit soul with an infant brain<br />

cause that's how we gonna get along today

<br><br><br><br>

<br>
