Ethel Cain - Strangers lyrics
[Ethel Cain - Strangers lyrics]
"God is telling you and I there is death
For all of us
But then we find that
The scriptures also tell
Us that we have a great promise
That there is a better place for those
Who believe in the lord Jesus Christ"
In your basement, I grow cold
Thinking back to what I was always told
Don't talk to strangers or you
Might fall in love
Freezer bride, your sweet divine
You devour like smoked bovine hide
How funny, I never considered myself tough
You're so handsome, walking over to me now
I tried to be good
Am I no good?
Am I no good?
Am I no good?
With my memory restricted to
A Polaroid in evidence
I just wanted to be yours
Can I be yours?
Can I be yours?
Can I be yours?
If I'm turning in your stomach and
I'm making you feel sick
When my mother sees me on the side
Of a milk carton in Winn-Dixie's dairy aisle
She'll cry and wait up for me
We'll make love in your attic all night
Euphoric in some strange delight
I'm happier here cause he told
Me I should be
You're so handsome when I'm
All over your mouth
I tried to be good
Am I no good?
Am I no good?
Am I no good?
With my memory restricted to
A Polaroid in evidence
I just wanted to be yours
Can I be yours?
Can I be yours?
Can I be yours?
If I'm turning in your stomach and
I'm making you feel sick
Am I making you feel sick?
Am I making you feel?
Am I making you feel sick?
Am I making you feel?
Am I making you feel sick?
Am I making you feel sick?
Am I making you feel sick?
Am I making you feel sick?
Am I?
Found you just to tell you that
I made it real far
And that I never blamed you for loving me the
Way that you did while you were torn apart
I would still wait with you there
Don't think about it too hard
Or you'll never sleep a wink at night again
Don't worry 'bout me and these green eyes
Mama, just know that I love you (I do)
And I'll see you when you get here
For all of us
But then we find that
The scriptures also tell
Us that we have a great promise
That there is a better place for those
Who believe in the lord Jesus Christ"
In your basement, I grow cold
Thinking back to what I was always told
Don't talk to strangers or you
Might fall in love
Freezer bride, your sweet divine
You devour like smoked bovine hide
How funny, I never considered myself tough
You're so handsome, walking over to me now
I tried to be good
Am I no good?
Am I no good?
Am I no good?
With my memory restricted to
A Polaroid in evidence
I just wanted to be yours
Can I be yours?
Can I be yours?
Can I be yours?
If I'm turning in your stomach and
I'm making you feel sick
When my mother sees me on the side
Of a milk carton in Winn-Dixie's dairy aisle
She'll cry and wait up for me
We'll make love in your attic all night
Euphoric in some strange delight
I'm happier here cause he told
Me I should be
You're so handsome when I'm
All over your mouth
I tried to be good
Am I no good?
Am I no good?
Am I no good?
With my memory restricted to

I just wanted to be yours
Can I be yours?
Can I be yours?
Can I be yours?
If I'm turning in your stomach and
I'm making you feel sick
Am I making you feel sick?
Am I making you feel?
Am I making you feel sick?
Am I making you feel?
Am I making you feel sick?
Am I making you feel sick?
Am I making you feel sick?
Am I making you feel sick?
Am I?
