Effigy
Stones tied to my shoes
They pull me down
Though I don't refuse
When you're all around
Tried to make a truce
But you don't care
Men come, men don't stay
When they feel you're there
And if two of us have a chemistry
There's a ghost of you, there's an effigy
And it's undermining everything
All the things I thought we could have been
And if two of us have a chemistry
There's a ghost of you, there's an effigy
And it's undermining everything
All the things I knew I couldn't see
But I see it, goes around and around and around
Yeah I see it, goes around and around
And it's good for nothing, what's the use?
Do you feel it?
Goes around and around and around
All the boys that fall for me every week
Disappear when they see the effigy
And a part of me that won't see the truth
Digs in deeper and deeper to try to get to you
But I don't blame them for wanting something more
Now I've realised why they're so unsure
All the boys that fall for me every week
Disappear when they see the effigy
But I see it
Yeah I see it
Good for nothing
(And now I see, and now I see)
Good for nothing
(And now I see, and now I see)
Goes around and around and around
And if two of us have a chemistry
There's a ghost of you, there's an effigy
And it's undermining everything
All the things I thought we could have been
And if two of us have a chemistry
There's a ghost of you, there's an effigy
And it's undermining everything
All the things I knew I couldn't see
Good for nothing
They pull me down
Though I don't refuse
When you're all around
Tried to make a truce
But you don't care
Men come, men don't stay
When they feel you're there
And if two of us have a chemistry
There's a ghost of you, there's an effigy
And it's undermining everything
All the things I thought we could have been
And if two of us have a chemistry
There's a ghost of you, there's an effigy
And it's undermining everything
All the things I knew I couldn't see
But I see it, goes around and around and around
Yeah I see it, goes around and around
And it's good for nothing, what's the use?
Do you feel it?
Goes around and around and around
All the boys that fall for me every week
Disappear when they see the effigy
And a part of me that won't see the truth
Digs in deeper and deeper to try to get to you
But I don't blame them for wanting something more
Now I've realised why they're so unsure
All the boys that fall for me every week
Disappear when they see the effigy
But I see it
Yeah I see it
Good for nothing
(And now I see, and now I see)
Good for nothing
(And now I see, and now I see)
Goes around and around and around
And if two of us have a chemistry
There's a ghost of you, there's an effigy
And it's undermining everything
All the things I thought we could have been
And if two of us have a chemistry
There's a ghost of you, there's an effigy
And it's undermining everything
All the things I knew I couldn't see
Good for nothing
