The Size Of Things To Come
from Next Week In Münster by Roger Heathers
lyrics
Oh, once you were fast asleep
Once you were dead to the world
I stubbornly wanted you never to change
No, now that you're far away
I want to incarcerate your love
Oh, never to change darling
I could give my life to you
Sever all my limbs and wear your cybernetic arms
And move better than before
That's about the size of things to come
Oh, well I get these feelings now
When I see you harvesting me up from out of the ground
No angel should look like this
Changing trajectory from day to day to day, darling
I could trust my eyes to you
Sever all connections to the feelings that I made
When I was so afraid
That's about the size of things to come
Once you were dead to the world
I stubbornly wanted you never to change
No, now that you're far away
I want to incarcerate your love
Oh, never to change darling
I could give my life to you
Sever all my limbs and wear your cybernetic arms
And move better than before
That's about the size of things to come
Oh, well I get these feelings now
When I see you harvesting me up from out of the ground
No angel should look like this
Changing trajectory from day to day to day, darling
I could trust my eyes to you
Sever all connections to the feelings that I made
When I was so afraid
That's about the size of things to come
