Separated Out
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We didn't lie to you, folks. We told you we had living, breathing, monstrosities. You'll laugh at them, shudder at them, and yet, but for the accident of birth, you might be even as they are. They did not ask to be brought into the world, but into the world they came. Their code is a law unto themselves. Offend one, and you offend them all!
Can you feel my skin
Can you feel my bones
Can you put my spine in plaster and take me home
So unpleasant inside and out
So unpleasant inside and out
If you like I'll tell you about it
You wouldn't want to know
My heads full of water
Tears I never cried
Could you hold me under the shower
In the cold outside
So unsteady inside and out
So unsteady inside and out
If you like I'll tell you about it
You wouldn't want to be
Separated out
Separated out
Separated out
I need medical attention
Where's my memory gone
Everything I told you - including this,
I already forgot
Separated out
From the living stream
The thing that couldn't lie straight
Straight in the machine
So unstable inside and out
Don't know how much longer I'll take it
If you like I'll sell you a ticket
Or you can get in for free
Am I enough of a freak
To be worth paying to see
Am I enough of a freak
To be worth paying to see
And now, folks, if you'll just step this way, you are about to witness the most amazing, the most astounding, living monstrosity of all time.
Can you feel my skin
Can you feel my bones
Can you put my spine in plaster and take me home
Can you kiss my face
Let me know it's there
Can you give it shap
