Lyrics
The Exorcism
You were here at seven
Banging my head against the wall
To the rhythm of some old hymn
That I still recall
When I was eleven
you told me I’m like the silver moon
As I ran on empty not a day to soon
Your tone changed after
To hunger strikes and hurricanes
Scarlet summers, growing pains
I’d follow you all the same
Oh I kissed you sickly
Smoking out sadness in your room
T’ was the first time ever I thought
Of expelling you
Now I’m gonna stay up I’m gonna stay afloat
With or without you
Stay away, be gone
You wandered briefly
Left me crying tears of joy
And for a minute
I knew peace
It was beautiful
and so boring
I know I’ll exorcize you
Twice each decade from now on
And though I might sedate you
You will never be gone
Oh, you’ll never be gone
You’ll never be, never be
I’m gonna stay up I’m gonna stay afloat
With or without you, with or without you now
Stay Away Be Gone
