Petal - Tommy lyrics

[Verse] The way your smell lingers on my clothes Creeps up, eats me inside out I couldn't make you stay Shoot up in the trailer I couldn't make you stay here [Verse] Pebbles fall from under your toes Jumped up, f**ed up always Like you were seeing something Like you saw something beautiful Couldn't make you stay here [Chorus] Dead skin, piercing light Through my eyes, through my spine Catch a glimpse of a flicker and I try And you are not here in my bed tonight You never will be You never will be, Tommy [Bridge] And I forgot your eyes And I forgot your hair

And I forgot you entirely The fall from Diamond Gap The ravages of time If you don't jump then I'll be fine [Chorus] Dead skin, piercing light Through my eyes, through my spine Catch a glimpse of a flicker and I try Dead skin, piercing light Through my eyes, through my spine Catch a glimpse of a flicker and I try And you are not here in my bed tonight You never will be You never will be You never will be You never will be [Outro] And you won't work in the factory I'll stop stripping And I won't leave if you won't leave If you don't leave, Tommy
