Adam and Eve Songtext

Adam and Eve Songtext
Tonight you stooped to my level
I am your mangy little whore
Now you′re trying to find your underwear
And then your socks and then the door
And you're trying to find a reason
Why you have to leave
But i know it′s 'cuz you think you're adam
And you think i′m eve
You rhapsodize about beauty
And my eyes glaze
Everything i love is ugly
I mean really, you would be amazed
Just do me a favor
It′s the least that you can do
Just don't treat me like i am
Something that happened to you
I am truly sorry about all this
You put a tiny pin prick
In my big red balloon
And as i slowly start to exhale
That′s when you leave the room
I did not design this game
I did not name the stakes
I just happen to like apples
And i am not afraid of snakes
I am truly sorry about all this
I envy you your ignorance
I hear that it's bliss
So i let go the ratio
Of things said to thing heard
As i leave you to your garden
And the beauty you preferred
And i wonder what of this
Will have meaning for you
When you′ve left it all behind
I guess i'll even wonder
If you meant it
At the time
I am your mangy little whore
Now you′re trying to find your underwear
And then your socks and then the door
And you're trying to find a reason
Why you have to leave
But i know it′s 'cuz you think you're adam
And you think i′m eve
You rhapsodize about beauty
And my eyes glaze
Everything i love is ugly
I mean really, you would be amazed
Just do me a favor
It′s the least that you can do
Just don't treat me like i am
Something that happened to you
I am truly sorry about all this
You put a tiny pin prick
In my big red balloon
And as i slowly start to exhale
That′s when you leave the room
I did not design this game
I did not name the stakes
I just happen to like apples
And i am not afraid of snakes
I am truly sorry about all this
I envy you your ignorance
I hear that it's bliss
So i let go the ratio
Of things said to thing heard
As i leave you to your garden
And the beauty you preferred
And i wonder what of this
Will have meaning for you
When you′ve left it all behind
I guess i'll even wonder
If you meant it
At the time
