The Body lyrics
by The Pains of Being Pure at Heart
Come on now stop staring at the ceiling
Your last daydream is slowly unreeling
Won't you come out tonight, like I know you want to
Cuz the city's alive and even though it haunts you, I want you
To tell me again what the body's for
Cuz I can't feel it anymore
I want to hurt like it did before
We shouldn't sin
Tell me again what the body's for
Cuz I can't feel it anymore
I lost mine and I need yours
It's only skin, we should swim
You try so hard to keep it together
And you look so hard in fishnets and leather
But I know who you are, you are just a lost saint
And if we go too far, there'll be heaven to pay
And what a price…
To tell me again what the body's for
Cuz I can't feel it anymore
I want to hurt like it did before
We shouldn't sin
Tell me again what the body's for
Cuz I can't feel it anymore
I lost mine and I need yours
It's only skin, we should swim
I can't feel it anymore
I can't feel it anymore
Tell me again what the body's for
I can't feel it anymore
I can't feel it anymore
Tell me again tell me again it's only skin, we should swim
