Body Songtext
von Dan Black

You′ve got to take your mind off him
But not with aspirins
You won't
You won′t let your family in
Like smoke your body comes
Through the gaps in the urban slums
You try
You try to speak in American

When you don't know what you want
You end up finding that you haunt
Your own
Your own life
You're the daylight ghost that creeps
You′re the empty city streets and I
And I see you


And those talk shows fill your days
Something is slipping away
Sometimes if feels like you don′t have a body
Your skin is cellophane
You know I feel the same
Sometimes if feels like you don't have a body

When you make a cup of tea
You act like it′s alchemy
But it's not
It′s not what you think it to be
Seeing everything as lines
Seeing everything as signs
Always
Always lying saying you're fine

When you don′t know what you want
You end up finding that you haunt
Your own
Your own life
You're the daylight ghost that creeps
You're the empty city streets and I
And I see you


And those talk shows fill your days
Something is slipping away
Sometimes if feels like you don′t have a body
Your skin is cellophane
You know I feel the same
Sometimes if feels like you don′t have a body

When you don't know what you want
You end up finding that you haunt
Your own
Your own life
You′re the daylight ghost that creeps
You're the empty city streets and I
And I see you

And those talk shows fill your days
Something is slipping away
Sometimes if feels like you don′t have a body
Your skin is cellophane
You know I feel the same
Sometimes if feels like you don't have a body
You don′t have a body
You don't have a body
