Anthony Reynolds - Nico's Children lyrics

Baby i've been waiting here for you In the housing benefit queue I've been waiting for the light That's set to end us all I've been thinking What these hands could do Let loose upon you Set free inside you Honey, undress me for the last time Put me to sleep in the daytime Tonight you're ugly and i'm worse But we're both victims of this thirst When the sunlight turns to snow When these lights are turned down low It won't be poetry Just poverty Like so Nico's children Follow me like flies Needlepoint arms And nothing in their eyes Come home to me early Say that you'll save me So sunny and dirty Oh swear you won't spare me The last in a line of beautiful mistakes Together we'd never make it Straight out of here See i was never impressed Be their motives of their dress But when the faith it turns to proof In this the deepest heart of you It's not the salvation just desperation My love we've been lied to before We'll find the reasons but never the cause And in these days between stations Yes we'll be free from their questions Yeah i was free to be Whatever it was you wanted me to be When the charity comes round When you're safe yet naked In the crowd It won't be kindness Just blindness Like so
