Amanda Palmer - Blake Says lyrics

Blake says no one ever really loved him They just faked it to get money from the government And Blake thinks angels grow when you plant angel dust He shakes his head And blinks his pretty eyes But trust me He's no valentine Though he said he would be mine His heart is in Alaska all the time Blake stays underwater for the most part He collects loose change for All Tomorrow's Parties And when Blake dates girls with tattoos of the pyramids He breaks their hearts By saying it's not permanent But in his velvet mind He believes with all his might We'll all go to Alaska when we die Blake makes friends but only for a minute He prefers the things he orders from the internet And Blake's been having trouble with his head again He takes his pills But never takes his medicine He tells me that he's fine And the sad thing is: he's right And when it's two O'clock it feels like nine Blake says he is sorry he got through to me If it's okay he'll call right back and talk to the machine Blake says it looks like acid rain today He takes the fish inside He's very kind that way But just like Caroline He doesn't seem to mind The globe is getting warmer all the time It's still cold in Alaska It's still cold in Alaska
