Villagers - Memoir lyrics

The city lights are beckoning
The sirens softly call
Of the fantasist and fetishists
Are preparing the ball
When you've been stuck here on the
Doorstep with nothing to forsake
Well you might as well be anyone's to take
So I give myself to strangers like
I gave myself to you
But the tenderness are felt has
Been replaced by something new
And in the orgy I can vaguely
Hear the outline of your call
Well I might as well be anyone's at all
Every memory is sailing to the
Kingdom of your soul
As you patiently await and lose
All sense of self control
You were the lighthouse to my broken boat
But, I've left you behind
Now I might as well be anyone's to find

Take my body take it from me
It is not worthy of your memory
Take my body take it from me
It is not worthy of your memory

I remember you undressing as I
Set myself on fire
And the funeral was quick as I
Lay lifeless on your pyre
Well it's a kind of desperation
And it's just something you can't fake
Oh, I might as well be anyone's to take
So I give myself to strangers like
I gave myself to you
But the unity I felt has
Been replaced by something new
Now I am Helen and I am Mary Jane
I am Robert and I am Paul
Oh, I might as well be anyone at all
Yes I might as well be anyone at all
Oh, I might as well be anyone at all
Oh, I might as well be anyone at all
Anyone at all anyone at all
Anyone at all
