Lyrics Emilie Autumn

Emilie Autumn

Swallow

I will swallow

If it will help my sea level go down

But I'll come back to haunt you if I drown

I will swallow

If it will help my sea level go down

But I'll come back to haunt you if I drown

I will swallow

I will...

I will swallow

I'll tell the truth all of my songs

Are pretty much the fucking same

I'm not a faerie but I need

More than this life so I became

This creature representing more to you

Than just another girl

And if I had a chance to change my mind

I wouldn't for the world

Twenty years

Sinking slowly

Can I trust you

But I don't want to

I will swallow

If it will help my sea level go down

But I'll come back to haunt you if I drown

I will swallow

If it will help my sea level go down

I'll take a deep, deep breath

But I'll come back to haunt you if I drown

I will swallow

I will...

I will swallow

I don't want to be a legend

Oh well that's a god-damned lie, I do

To say I do this for the people

I admit is hardly true

You tell me everything's all right

As though it's something you've been through

You think this torment is romantic

Well it's not, except to you

Twenty years

Sinking slowly

Can I trust you

But I don't want to

I will swallow

If it will help my sea level go down

But I'll come back to haunt you if I drown

I will swallow

If it will help my sea level go down

I'll take a deep, deep breath

But I'll come back to haunt you if I drown

I will swallow

I will...

I will swallow

Low tide and high tea

The oysters are waiting for me

If I'm not there on time

I'll send my emissary

If I photoshop you

Out of every picture I could

Go quietly, quiet

But would that do any good

Will it hurt? No it won't

Then what am I so afraid of

Filthy Victorians

They made me what I'm made of

The brighter the light

The darker the shadow

I don't need a minder

I've made up my mind

Go away

Twenty years

Sinking slowly

But can I trust you

But I don't want to

I will swallow

If it will help my sea level go down

But I'll come back to haunt you if I drown

I will swallow

If it will help my sea level go down

I'll take a deep, deep breath

But I'll come back to haunt you if I drown

I will swallow

If it will help my sea level go down

But I'll come back to haunt you if I drown

I will swallow

If it will help my sea level go down

I'll take a deep, deep breath

But I'll come back to haunt you if I drown

I will swallow

If it will help my sea level go down

But I'll come back to haunt you if I drown

I will swallow

If it will help my sea level go down

I'll take a deep, deep breath

But I'll come back to haunt you if I drown

I will swallow

I will...

I will swallow

I'll take a deep, deep breath

I'll take a deep...

I'll take a deep...
