Song Of Imaginary Beings - IAMX

Her mother said if she couldn’t love

The physical way a woman should

Then where else could she go?

Where the sisters and the fathers can’t save her soul

Send them in, see them on

She can’t find a lover, she’ll fashion one

Imaginary men

Like the burned out poets in the hinterland

The Phoenix says

The Double says

The serpent says

The siren says

Why use the word, when the word it means to believe?

Why use the word, when the word it means to believe?

Why?

The hourglass sees what shelf life does

She asked, exactly tell me

«What is love but grieving life alone?»

Just the words from prophets and religious shows

Imagine hurt, imagine tears

She opened up until she disappeared

Vanished, hand-in-hand

With all the long-lost children locked in Neverland

The Phoenix says

The Double says

The serpent says

The siren says

Why use the word, when the word it means to believe?

Why use the word, when the word it means to believe?

The Phoenix says

The Double says

The serpent says

The siren says

Oh, the Phoenix says

(Burn for me)

The Double says

(Lie for me)

The serpent says

(Beg for me)

The siren says

(Die for me)

Oh, the Phoenix says

(Burn for me)

The Double says

(Lie for me)

The serpent says

(Beg for me)

The siren says

(Die for me)
