Xiu Xiu - Get Up lyrics

A piano fell on my face You told me to get up When I could not control myself You say to get up Consciousness demolished And I try to hold the pain inside You say to hold it in Love me forever Don't forget me It's the late in the game to ask But I'm still asking A harmonica fell on my face It did not hurt that much If you leave no one will find my corpse You said: "Rise from the dead!" Sometimes a person cannot help what they do You mumble to get up Operating now without belief You say "shh shh shh," and to get up Do you hate me now Because I seem so stupid Or do you just Very quickly leave me right now During the rape of everything decent The flickering flames impressed me A saxophone fell on my face How is a mystery When I am shocked by my own foolishness You say you are not as shocked And I repeat that I am shocked by my own foolishness You get up and leave the room Love me forever Don't forget me It's the late in the game to ask But I'm still asking you You're the only reason I was born You're the only reason I was born
