Dime Store Prophets - Hitler's Girlfriend Lyrics
Someone left the window open,Cold air is slowly creeping in.I'm sitting watching tv sitcomsWhere everyone is happy in the end,And I'm beginning to believe it,Some say we can get byWithout the help of a friend,And I'm lying here, I'm remotely controlled,Strapped to an engine stuck in idle,Don't feel 'cause I fearDon't love 'cause I lost...Don't know, don't want to know...[Chorus:]I'm not myself, til you are you,(I want to bleed, bleed for you)If I close my eyes, I'm killing you(Kiss your hands, kiss your wounds)I carry the weight of this safety net,(I want to bleed, bleed for you)So I feel like Hitler's girlfriend,I'm blind to this and numb to that.I know a girl who draws happy facesOn everything she writes.She doesn't fool me,I've seen her bag of troubles, and it's not light.Don't you know I want to reach out, cry for her,Carry the weight,But something just won't let me leave the couch.There's a scream and a crash,There's a knife and a chainAnd her head is full of spirits...I don't get too closeMight get what you got.My foot is asleep.[Chorus:]I'm not myself, til you are you,(I want to bleed, bleed for you)If I close my eyes, I'm killing you(Kiss your hands, kiss your wounds)I carry the weight of this safety net,(I want to bleed, bleed for you)So I feel like Hitler's girlfriend,I'm blind to this and numb to that.I was sprawled out at the foot of my bedWith a rage of fire, going round in my head,And I said "Could this be the salt of the earthIn my tears? "I am watching Miss Brown, some say she didn't know,Just took another Judas' kiss now,Well I'm not blaming youWas there something you could do?My coffee is cold...[Chorus: 2x]I'm not myself, til you are you,(I want to bleed, bleed for you)If I close my eyes, I'm killing you(Kiss your hands, kiss your wounds)I carry the weight of this safety net,(I want to bleed, bleed for you)So I feel like Hitler's girlfriend,I'm blind to this and numb to that.
