Let the Power Bleed - Toyah

I cut the sky with a hopeless cry

Let the power bleed down on me

I feel dreadfully torn

Like a new-born

Deep unrest beneath the

Great great undressed stigmatism of flesh

Little little lady grow

Little little lady grow tall

Stand before it all

And roar the door

Before you grew from a seed to a tree

With timber cut life drained away

A barrier was made

Fly away phoenix love, love me do

Hold me close to you

Break my inhibitions

Let the kudos wake

Little little lady grow

Little little lady grow tall

Stand before it all

And roar, roar, roar…

Let the power bleed

The cut beneath the skin never heals

A furtive glance from a stranger

Existence recognised body

Immortalised yes, there’s a

Woman in those flames

Yes, that wreckage has a soul

And just a little self respect

Will make this baby whole again

Fly away phoenix

Fly away phoenix
