Lady Kerosene

I saw you sighing by your window bright,

Touch my heart to be your acolyte

Sip fire-water from the golden cup

Drinks at my bedside, as i'm burning up.



Lady kerosene, i can see the wreckage now,

Drinking gasoline, you keep on pumpin' it out somehow.



Now i'm at ashland, baby, far away

I'm just a cinder of a summer's day.

Lady kerosene, prometheus' evil daughter;

You know what i mean,

I even asked him for a glass of water.



I always thought it was a gentle notion

I flew across the atlantic ocean

Rain is different there across the sea

It hits the earth a little differently

Windshield wipers keep a steady time

Crosswords among the cliffs of lime

Beyond horizon and the clouds of devotion

Comes sunset's tendons from your crimson sun



Lady kerosene (repeat 4 times)
