Jim Caroll - Wicked Gravity Lyrics
The gravity here is just sick for revengeIts like my lungs are filled with chains . . .The sky seems so low,It hasnt moved this slowSince the virgins, since the virgins went dancing for the rainYou know the stars in the nightTheyre like the holes in the caveLike the ceiling of a bombed-out churchBut gravity blocks my screamsIts like an enemys dreamsMy guardians quitThey quit before they started their searchRefrain:I want a world without gravityIt could be just what I needId watch the stars move closeId watch the earth recedeI wanna drift above the borders against my willI wanna sleep where the angels dont passBut now my lips are blueGravity does it to youIts like theyre pressed against a mirrored glassI want my will and capability to meet inside the regionWhere this gravity dont mean a thingIts where the angels break through . . .Its where they bring it to youIts where silence, silence can teach me to singRepeat refrain 2 timesI wanna lay beneath these sheets and never turn blueI wanna hold you, hold you tight but never touchI want some pure, pure white; hey, we can nod all nightWe can do it without thinking too muchI want the dilettantes and parvenues to choke on my wristsThey think the pearls I wear are pillsI want their gravity to shatter . . . but it really doesnt matterI got something in my eye that kills!Repeat refrainWicked, wicked, wicked, wicked gravity . . .Wicked, wicked, wicked, wicked gravity . . .Wicked, wicked, wicked, wicked.
