Polyhymnia Songtext

von Keaton Henson

Polly won't you kick in my teeth?
Burn all my songs, leave me out on the street
Polly won't you stand on my neck?
Do what you have to, I'll write you a check

You tell me my words are a waste of no's
And I said "do you love me?"
You say you don't know
And I'll live my life like a man on the ropes
When I say "do you love me?"
Say you don't know
Polly won't you put out my eyes?
Tell me you're sleeping with those other guys
And Polly won't you bite off my tongue?
Make me feel heartache like when I was young

Drive me out of my mind
I'll be yours and you'll be mine
Baby haunt me when you die
Just give me time, just give me time
I need pain for my art
Take my lungs, break my heart

Just don't leave me
Baby stay here
I can't bear to be apart
Baby stay here
Please don't leave me
I can't bear to be apart
