Of Montreal - Colossus lyrics

Your mother hung herself in the National Theater When she was four months pregnant with your sister Who would have been thirteen years old today Does that make you feel any less alone in the world? Your dad, I'm sure, he tried his best He thought you'd be better off living with your grandmother He didn't realize that she had already given up Baby, your family, they are just losers I've become such a wolf around you My thoughts go dark and dull, out of focus Have no peace in my mind Because you You've touched me The screech owls are going insane outside my house It is the season for trouble and self destruction All of my friends, they are falling apart But not me, I'm in control Remember the exquisite corpse that we created together We laughed at the time, it seemed so impenetrable But reading it now I think I understand What it is that we are trying to steal from each other I've become such a wolf around you My thoughts go dark and dull, out of focus Have no peace in my mind Because you You've touched me
