E-Bow The Letter (Live From St. James’s Church, London / 2004)-R.E.M./Thom Yorke

[00:21.27]Look up and what do you see? All of you and all of me [00:24.72]Fluorescent and starry, some of them, they surprise [00:27.86]The bus ride, I went to write this, 4:00 a.m, this letter [00:32.17]Fields of poppies, little pearls all the boys and all the girls [00:36.86]Sweet-toothed, each and every one a little scary [00:41.65]I said your name, I wore it like a badge of teenage film stars [00:46.68]Hash bars, cherry mash and tinfoil tiaras [00:49.72]Dreaming of Maria Callas, whoever she is [00:55.45]This fame thing, I don't get it [00:57.64]I wrap my hand in plastic to try to look through it [01:00.24]Maybelline eyes and girl-as-boy moves [01:03.57]I can take you far, this star thing, I don't get it [01:08.37] [01:12.42]I'll take you over, there [01:20.05]I'll take you over, there [01:25.63]I'll take you over, there [01:33.80]Will you live to 83? Will you ever welcome me? [01:38.98]Will you show me something that nobody else has seen? [01:43.56]Smoke it, drink, here comes the flood, anything to thin the blood [01:50.54]These corrosives do their magic slowly and sweet [01:55.57]Phone, eat it, drink, just another chink [02:00.05]Cuts and dents, they catch the light [02:03.34]Aluminum, the weakest link [02:07.28]I don't want to disappoint you, I'm not here to anoint you [02:11.27]I would lick your feet, but is that the sickest move? [02:13.62]I wear my own crown of sadness and sorrow [02:16.11]And who'd have thought tomorrow would be so strange? [02:21.69]My loss, and here we go again [02:24.55] [02:25.69]I'll take you over, there [02:31.57]I'll take you over, there [02:37.62]I'll take you over, there [02:44.18]I'll take you over, there [03:02.42]Look up and what do you see? [03:06.23]All of you and all of me, florescent and starry [03:10.11]And some of them, they surprise [03:14.79]I can't look it in the eyes, seconal [03:17.73]Spanish fly, absinthe, kerosene [03:19.93]Cherry-flavored neck and collar [03:21.84]I can smell the sorrow on your breath [03:24.08]The sweat, the victory and sorrow, the smell of fear [03:28.07]I got it [03:28.52] [03:30.41]I'll take you over, there [03:38.25]I'll take you over, there [03:44.09]I'll take you over, there [03:49.92]I'll take you over, there [03:58.83]It tastes like fear, pulls us near [04:08.31]Over, over, over, over [04:14.69]Over, over, over, over
