Frances Farmer Lyrics

I never knew Frances Farmer
Just a picture from a friend that I look at everyday
Her head cocked over her shoulder
And eyes far away

I never knew Frances Farmer
I just knew she was an actress that never quite fit in
But I feel her lying next to me,
Breathing in my arms
With translucent skin


I never knew Frances Farmer
But her lips could tell me secrets that the world will never know
A world she left so long ago

I never knew Frances Farmer
But I couldn't know her better if she was sitting here today
Shock treatments and lobotomies
For things you should not say
