You're an unwelcome awakening In a fragile bag of chemicals You're a knee-locked revelation Waking dream A hungry hungry wormhole I can cherish and hold each abdominal toll The joyless cold Can you cherish and hold every original misconception of my soul? You best check your hands for missing fingers Once I've shaked them Are you wearing a wire? Have you been compromised? Are you being followed? Do they peep you through your peephole? Rip you up limb from limb? You need only let me in Anneliese, Anneliese! Anneliese, Anneliese! I've got oceans of insanity I've got mountains of profanity I've got spoonfuls of the irony all for you Just let me in Oh, dear Anneliese, how you frighten me! White powerless, yeah
Cold and remote like the love of God White powerless I could cherish and hold every impossible heart-crossed oath I could cherish and love every original misconception of your soul There'll be company men, there'll be sitcoms There'll be bedpans, I'll be fodder for your friends You need only let me in Anneliese, Anneliese! Anneliese, Anneliese! I've got oceans of insanity I've got mountains of profanity I've got spoonfuls of the irony all for you I'm a bastion of ban*lity In my fortress of futility near my mansion mediocrity all for you Anneliese, Anneliese! Anneliese, Anneliese! Anneliese, Anneliese, Anneliese, Anneliese, Anneliese, Anneliese! Just let me in Just let me in Just let me in Just let me in
