Emily Songtext
von Switchblade Kittens

I reason earth is short
And anguish absolute
And many hurt
But what of that?
But what of that?

I reason that in heaven
Somehow it will be even
Some new equation given
But what of that?
But what of that?

This is my letter to the world
That never wrote to me
The simple news that nature told
With tender majesty
This is my letter to the world
That never wrote to me
The simple news that nature told
With tender majesty


The very shame of nobleness
Confronting sudden hell
A finer shame of ecstasy
Deprived of itself
A fan perhaps
A friend to friend
And certainly that one
No colour in the rainbow
Prostitutes you when you′re gone
Prostitutes you when you're gone

This is my letter to the world
That never wrote to me
The simple news that nature told
With tender majesty
This is my letter to the world
That never wrote to me
The simple news that nature told
With tender majesty

With tender majesty
With tender majesty
With tender majesty
With tender majesty
With tender majesty
With tender majesty
