The Soil of Eden

from Johanna, Johanna by Ian Taylor

/

lyrics

Gonna find some new friends
get real drunk and burn the pages of my old friends.
Stare through a mirror like a camera lens
cause I'm a light bulb always blinking
on and off and always shaking.
Kind of nervous, sort of broken.
Sad sad, sad sad, sad sad.

Cause I've been walking the same fucking circle
for as long as I can remember
it'll never change it'll only rearrange.

I stumble through streets blurred
trying to erase her like a pencil on paper
maybe if I press harder it just might work.
Cause I've been bleeding the soil of Eden
spread my wings and wipe away the finger prints
that touched my heart, heart heart, hard heart.

Cause I'm so fucking tired of screaming your name
and standing alone in this winter rain
waiting for a splendid change.
So I'll grab my things and move swiftly
upon my aching lonely feet
and find my home wherever that may be.

And like a friend, I can depend on you to vanish.
