IAMX - Song Of Imaginary Beings Lyrics
My mother said that she could loveThe physical way a woman shouldThen where else could she go?Where the sisters and the fathers can't save her soulSend them in, see them onShe can't find a lover, she'll fashion oneImaginary manLike the burnt-out poets in the hinterlandThe phoenix says,The devil says,The serpent says,The siren says,Why is the word when the word needs the meaning?The hourglass sees what shelf life doesShe asked, exactly tell me what is loveBut grieving life aloneJust the words from prophets and religious showsImagine hurt, imagine tearsShe opened up until she disappearedVanished, hand-in-hand,With all the long-lost children locked in Neverland[Chorus]OhThe phoenix says(Burn for me)The devil says(Lie for me)The serpent says(Beg for me)The siren says(Die for me)(X2)
