Darling Violetta

Electric Elegy

unknown

Walking through neck deep water
I try to move towards you
Blinded by tears, sick with guilt
I pray "Please God, won’t you pity me"
(CHORUS)
So alone and so afraid
Your words my only saving grace
I’ll be here for you
I’ll be here for you
No other words were ever true

It goes beyond human need
So now you start to bleed
Trickles slowly, then it starts to pour
Sick as I am, I want you more
(CHORUS)
So alone and so afraid
Your words my only saving grace
I’ll be here for you
I’ll be here for you
No other words were ever true

Down in the earth and stone
Under all that weight of rocks and roses
So tragic yet somehow beautiful
Under all that weight of rocks and roses

Can you forgive me for stealing
I’ve knelt so long these legs are numb
It’s comforting to have a piece of you
I pray "Please God, what have I become?"
(CHORUS)
So alone and so afraid
Your words my only saving grace
I’ll be here for you
I’ll be here for you
No other words were ever true
I'll be here for you
