IAMX - Song of Imaginary Beings lyrics
[IAMX - Song of Imaginary Beings lyrics]
Her mother said if she couldn't love
The physical way a woman should
Then where else could she go
Where the sisters and the fathers
Can't save her soul?
Send them in, see them on
She can't find a lover, she'll fashion one
Imaginary man
Like the burned out poets in the hinterland
The Phoenix says, the Double says
The serpent says, the siren says
Why use the word
When the word needs the belief?
Why use the word
When the word needs the belief? Why?
The hourglass sees what shelf life does
She asked exactly, "Tell me
What is love but breathing life alone?"
And just the words from
Prophets and religious shows
Imagine hurt, imagine tears
She opened up until she disappeared
And vanished hand-in hand
With all the long-lost children
Locked in Neverland
The Phoenix says, the Double says
The serpent says, the siren says
Why use the word
When the word needs the belief?
Why use the word
When the word needs the belief?
The Phoenix says, the Double says
The serpent says, the siren says
Oh, the Phoenix says (Burn for me)
The Double says (Lie for me)
The serpent says (Beg for me)
The siren says (Die for me)
Oh, the Phoenix says (Burn for me)
The Double says (Lie for me)
The serpent says (Beg for me)
The siren says (Die for me)
The physical way a woman should
Then where else could she go
Where the sisters and the fathers
Can't save her soul?
Send them in, see them on
She can't find a lover, she'll fashion one
Imaginary man
Like the burned out poets in the hinterland
The Phoenix says, the Double says
The serpent says, the siren says
Why use the word
When the word needs the belief?
Why use the word
When the word needs the belief? Why?
The hourglass sees what shelf life does
She asked exactly, "Tell me
What is love but breathing life alone?"
And just the words from
Prophets and religious shows
Imagine hurt, imagine tears
She opened up until she disappeared
And vanished hand-in hand
With all the long-lost children
Locked in Neverland
The Phoenix says, the Double says
The serpent says, the siren says
Why use the word
When the word needs the belief?
Why use the word
When the word needs the belief?
The Phoenix says, the Double says
The serpent says, the siren says
Oh, the Phoenix says (Burn for me)
The Double says (Lie for me)
The serpent says (Beg for me)
The siren says (Die for me)
Oh, the Phoenix says (Burn for me)
The Double says (Lie for me)
The serpent says (Beg for me)
The siren says (Die for me)
