lyrics

Maybe I don't quite know the virtue that you are.
Maybe that is helpful,
Maybe i'm just subpar when I begin to compare you to anything that could be something other than human.

Maybe i don't want you to be a human, boy.
I don't like the humans, and i don't want to be destroyed.
When i say i'm human, I admit I will die, and I do not want to die human.

All i want to do is give my life over to my soul.
All i want to do is work my life away till I'm no more.
All i want to do is eat my life away.

If i just work harder than you'll learn my name.
I'll be in your head like it was always that way.
Maybe you will question all your actions from that day, like i did when i met you.

All i want to do is give my life over to my soul.
All i want to do is work my life away till I'm no more.
All i want to do is eat my life away.

Because it hurts and it hurts more when i don't see you.
You think i can't handle the cold, shaming, deep truth that it's not really a problem - that i make my life of them.
Well, i just won't hang around you anymore.

All i want to do is give my life over to my soul.
All i want to do is work my life away till I'm no more.

Possibly Nicole's most brutal album which in her case is really saying something. Adam II and the title track especially are so gutting I can't even muster the energy to cry. Music to sit with and sit with and sit with and carry with you forever big suit david byrne
