Lessons From Lorena Songtext
von Shilpa Ray

How slow does it beat when you′re chemically asleep?
Where are you drifting to?
A dead fish in Timbuktu
Tropical breezes over anxiety

Though I'm not heaven sent
I believe
You′re always going somewhere
when you leave

The light's last sigh in shadows
Repeat 'cross your room
you′re no restless Knight
Pillow lids and tucked in tight
Cruise controlling your little boy blues


No I′m not heaven sent
I'm a thief
Snaking ′round your sheep
while you dream

You can't draw water from a stone
I know
Or wring the prick off some half-wit Lothario

OOOOOOO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

And when day breaks
in scalding rays
Punish Me
Stiff lipped stoic beast
Here′s hoping for a hung jury
I'm pleading temporary insanity

Though I′m not heaven sent
I can see
There is no sense in living so lonely
