Lyrics Kristin Hersh

Kristin Hersh

Vanishing Twin

I feel the tug of war, I fight the fight

But I don't have the patience

Or the stamina to last one night

With color mad candy mouth, you

Your reputation lives in spite of me

Your platitudes and berserk theories

Super real fantasy that infuriating vanishing twin

He has metal bones and a wild eyed stare

I'm thinking feigning interest, badly like a liar

And then he blows me away

And then all I want is a room and you

The urban hillside glinting copper in the morning

A broken spell, alive and well

That's the way the cookie bounces in spite of me

I hate clever sons of bitches

Who can't leave a girl alone to rot in peace
