Silk

[Verse 1]

Your broad shoulders, my wet tears

You're alive and I'm still here

As some half-human creature thing

Can you bring life to anything? Ooh

("Take this to make you better"

Though eventually you'll die)

If you don't love me, don't tell me

I've never asked who and I'll never ask why

("It's such a shame, she used to be so delightful")

Well, whose fault is that, if it wasn't Mum and Dad's?

"Well, it must be yours"

We'll have none of that, no

[Chorus]

Just looking for a protector

God never reached out in time

There's love that is a saviour

But that ain't no love of mine

My love it kills me slowly

Slowly, I could die

And when she sleeps, she hears the blues

Sees shades of black and white

(Run, run, run away)

(Run, run, run away)

[Verse 2]

Got to stay cool, you hot, hot head

Count to a thousand before you sleep in bed

Read the news, pass the time

Drink the juice, feeling fine

Got to stay cool, you hot, hot head

Count to a thousand before you sleep in bed

Read the news, pass the time

Drink the juice, feeling fine

"At least you're not boring"

No one ever wants to feel you're this sad, ohh

[Chorus]

Just looking for a protector

God never reached out in time

There's love that is a saviour

But that ain't no love of mine

My love it kills me slowly

Slowly, I could die

And when she sleeps, she hears the blues

Sees shades of black and white

Just looking for a protector

God never reached out in time

There's love that is a saviour

But that ain't no love of mine

My love it kills me slowly

Slowly, I could die

And when she sleeps, she hears the blues

Sees shades of black and white
