[Owen Pallett, Xiu Xiu - I Dream of Someone Else Entirely lyrics]
A barbershop mushroom of blonded hair
Two stomped upon children dressed
Up as parents
All of us, always humiliated
All of us, always tightened in fear
All of us, always a scream
All of us, always shy, shy shy
I dream of someone else entirely
I dream of someone else entirely
You said to me
"When I think of this family and who is in it
How is that supposed to make
Me feel about myself?"
A punishment bottle of hot sauce
Complete and totaled insanity crudely
Assembling one life
All of us, always odd
All of us, always nite peoples
All of us, always quiet as a breech
All of us, always waiting awake
I dream of someone else entirely
I dream of someone else entirely
To've yelled in my little face
"It sounds phony when you say 'I love you
Mom!'"
All of us, always whipsawed
All of us, always bewitched by shade
All of us, always dis-considered
All of us, always together alone
I dream of someone else entirely
I dream of someone else entirely
Burst apart by the knuckling
Jockeys and merchant seaman
I dream of someone else entirely
Two stomped upon children dressed
Up as parents
All of us, always humiliated
All of us, always tightened in fear
All of us, always a scream
All of us, always shy, shy shy
I dream of someone else entirely
I dream of someone else entirely
You said to me
"When I think of this family and who is in it
How is that supposed to make
Me feel about myself?"
A punishment bottle of hot sauce
Complete and totaled insanity crudely
Assembling one life
All of us, always odd
All of us, always nite peoples
All of us, always quiet as a breech
All of us, always waiting awake
I dream of someone else entirely
I dream of someone else entirely
To've yelled in my little face
"It sounds phony when you say 'I love you
Mom!'"
All of us, always whipsawed
All of us, always bewitched by shade
All of us, always dis-considered
All of us, always together alone
I dream of someone else entirely
I dream of someone else entirely
Burst apart by the knuckling
Jockeys and merchant seaman
I dream of someone else entirely
