James - William Burroughs lyrics
[James - William Burroughs lyrics]
At school he always had to hide
His feelings buried deep inside
A poker face, his features froze
At 12 he looked like William Burroughs
He talked but never moved his lips
Made love but never used his hips
His skin unused fell to decay
From fleshy pink to ashen grey
It's enough to crack a smile
It's enough to make you blind
It's enough to make you
Live your life backwards
It's enough to drive you out of your mind
And he became a figurehead
A 3-D sign that might be dead
And no one knew his state of mind
He fell into the great divide
It's enough to crack a smile
It's enough to leave you blind
At school he always had to hide
His feelings buried deep inside
A poker face, his features froze
At 12 he looked like William Burroughs
William Burroughs william Burroughs
William Burroughs burroughs
Burroughs burroughs
His feelings buried deep inside
A poker face, his features froze
At 12 he looked like William Burroughs
He talked but never moved his lips
Made love but never used his hips
His skin unused fell to decay
From fleshy pink to ashen grey
It's enough to crack a smile
It's enough to make you blind
It's enough to make you
Live your life backwards
It's enough to drive you out of your mind
And he became a figurehead
A 3-D sign that might be dead
And no one knew his state of mind
He fell into the great divide
It's enough to crack a smile
It's enough to leave you blind
At school he always had to hide
His feelings buried deep inside
A poker face, his features froze
At 12 he looked like William Burroughs
William Burroughs william Burroughs
William Burroughs burroughs
Burroughs burroughs
