Memoir (From 'Stage Whisper - Unreleased' album (2011)
The city lights are beckoning; their sirens softly call. All the fantacists and fetishist are preparing for their ball. We've been stuck here on the doorstep with nothing to forsake but we might as well be anyone's to take.
So, I give myself to strangers like I gave myself to you. The tenderness I felt has been replaced by something new. And in the end I can vaguely hear an outline of your call. But I may as well be any words at all.
Every memory is sailing to the kingdom of your soul. As you patiently await, I lose my sense of self-control. For you were the lighthouse to my broken boat but I left you behind now I might as well be anyone's to find. Take my body take it from me It is not worthy of your memory
I remember you undressing as I sat myself on fire And the funeral was quick as I lay lifeless on your pyre Well it's a kind of desperation And it's just something you can't fake Oh I might as well be anyone s to take
So I give myself to strangers like I gave myself to you But the unity I felt has been replaced by something new Now I am Helen and I am Mary Jane I am Robert and I am Paul Oh I might as well be anyone's at all Yes I might as well be anyone at all
