Crutches Lyrics

Crutches - Bettie Serveert
--------   ---------------
 
 From Album Lamprey
 
 Boredom always lurks within strange places
 But still I find a way to feed my mind
 The worlds colide beyond those spaces
 I'm never sure of what goes on inside
 
 If I apologize for every crutch I've used
 I guess I never would have walked inside those shoes

 Be hold the world that I've been shaping
 I never said that I'd belong
 In other words have I been flaking
 Don't you know what I would have done
 
 If I apologize for every crutch I've used
 I guess I never would have worked inside those shoes
 So Let me down, down, down
 Let it bubble all around me
 Always something else to do
 Let me  down, down, down
 Let the shallowness surround me, let me drown in it
 
 From the tint of my eyes
 I can see the world
 Spinning like a girl
 never satisfied
 And though it's plain to see
 You don't exist for me
 Don't believe every word that they say
 
 So Let me down, down, down
 Let it bubble all around me
 Always something else to prove
 Let me  down, down, down
 Let the shallowness surround me, let me drown in it
 
 A part of my mind
 Never wonders still
 Why it's close at hand?
 It's never out of sight
 And though it's part of me
 You're never going to see
 
 Don't believe every word that they say
 Don't believe every word that they say

After a revision on the lyric, with a great help from Ruth Tobey. Now, we
agree that this lyric is really near from the original one.
Thanks.
