This Wicked Tongue
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.
This wicked tongue says
God is a million miles away
This wicked tongue says
He can't see my day to day
This wicked tongue says
Go on, taste everything
And this wicked tongue says
You know you're not really living
And it stares into the sun
And it flies from star to star
Cursing everyone
In my ringing ears
And the noise is as much as I can bear
And the noise is as much as I can bear
And the noise is as much as I can bear
And the noise is as much as I can bear
So I asked her where's the heart?
In the rubbish heap of man
So I asked her where's the soul?
And the silence rang and rang and rang and rang and rang
So I stare into the sun
And I fly from star to star
Cursing everyone
In my ringing ears
And the noise is as much as I can bear
And the noise is as much as I can bear
And the noise is as much as I can bear
And the noise is as much as I can bear
I give up - he said
I give up, you win
Creation baby has failed again
I give up - he said
I give up you win
Creation baby has failed again
Creation baby has failed again
Creation baby has failed again
Creation baby has failed again
