Intro

Intro

There's a sound across the alley

Of cold metal touching skin

And you can see if you look in her window

That she has gone and cut her hair again

In straight lines

Straaaaaight lines

Those soft golden lights in the morning

Are now on her wooden floor

The wind has swept them through the apartment, she won't need them

Anymore, anymore, anymore

She's cut down on her lovers

Though she still dreams of them at night

She's growing straight lines where once were flowers

She is streamlined, she is taking the shade down from the light

To see the straight lines

Straaaaaight lines

She wants to cut through the circles

That she has lived in before

She wants to finally kill the delusions, she won't need them

Anymore, anymore, anymore

There's a sound across the alley

Of cold metal too close to the bone

And you can see if you look in her window

The face of a woman finally alone

Behind straight lines

Straaaaaight lines

Behind straight lines

Straaaaaight lines
