Siren

A man's ecstatic contemplation of a woman's voice leads him to doubt his own existence.

Siren: the illustrated lyrics book

She taught me what I see is not true

All I can see is blue

She saved me from drowning in her brew

By holding my head down

Now I can breathe underwater

Though it hurts

Though it hurts

Though it hurts

Her song was sweet and lovely

How it burns

How it burns

How it burns

You see through me
While I can’t see you
You stand by me
And I do need you

To lead me on

Lead me on
Lead me on

Lead me on

And all these shades of blue

Turn to black

As I move down

Out of the twilight zone

Now I can breathe underwater

Though it hurts
Though it hurts

Though it hurts

Her song was sweet and lovely

How it burns
How it burns
How it burns

How it burns

You see through me
While I can’t see you
You stand by me
And I do need you

To lead me on
Lead me on
Lead me on

Lead me on

Lead me on
Lead me on
Lead me on

Lead me on
