Aubergine

Well I bled blue blood from my back last night, I was alone Aubergine sheets on my bed now, oh no And your blue eyes lie Just like an atlas In those sockets Yeah your blue eyes cry, mapwater When you're sorry Oh so sorry Oh no You with the nape that holds my gaze You with the tongue that speaks my name You with the arms that keep me at length You with the heart that won't show its face And Jesus sucks the mud out of your soul But the flame in your eye, it is blue and cold And you risked your wrist to save my life And I should have kissed you that night But it ain't right Oh no It ain't right Oh no And absence makes my heart grow hollow Absence makes my heart grow hollow Make me into an egg without yolk You make me into an egg without yolk Absence makes my heart grow hollow Absence makes my heart grow hollow Make me into an egg without yolk You make me into an egg without yolk I was unborn when I was younger I was unborn when I was younger But I was rebuilt when you spoke I awoke when you spoke You said, "There's always a reason for leaving There's always a reason to stay I know exactly why I'm leaving: I just can't stay." And I say, "I'll give you my whole summer When you unfurl your fingers I would be lying if I said you had nothing To do with me You're to blame for my being this way." You with the nape that holds my gaze You with the tongue that speaks my name You with the arms that keep me at length You with the heart that won't show its face
