Artist: Paula Cole Album: This Fire (1996) Title: Nietzsche's Eyes
Lyrics Nietzsche's EyesHow many times did
I have to hear you say to me
Self obsessed artist
Center of your universe
Well I believed your every word
And I believed you were my god
[Chorus]
Nietzsche's eyes
Nietzsche's kind
Failed in flight to us
And all my love
Grandmother
Mother
And now I see it in myself
I take on the water
Until the dam threatens to break
I became a little doll
My voice became too small
[Chorus]
I'm shakin'
I'm shakin'
I'm getting down this fantasy
And I'm shakin'
I'm shakin'
I'm getting down this
Getting down this
You were not my superman
I didn't know
Just how I felt
All my love
I'm shakin'
I'm shakin'
I'm getting down this fantasy
I'm shakin'
I'm shakin'
I'm getting down this, getting down this
You were not my superman
I wasn't honest
I tried to philosphize
Only too late did
I see I wore nietzsche's eyes
Now that I step back to see
I haven't been me
[Chorus]
I'm shakin'
I'm shakin'
I'm getting down this fantasy
And I'm shakin'
I'm shakin'
I'm getting down this
Getting down this [9x] |
