Straw Into Gold
I wonder if you sleep right now
Do you realize I'm clinging to the edge of this bed?
I have nowhere to go, I have nowhere
If I leave, you'll call me quitter
If I stay, you'll punish me with silence and somehow
You'll fall asleep, you'll fall asleep
Well, do you know that I won't sleep?
No, I won't sleep all night long
As your silhouette turns its' back on my spoon
I'm mesmerized by the ricochet moon
Leaping this leprechaun's wall
I'm so disenchanting
Intoxicated by my own tear's soul
And come tomorrow, when my beauty is old
Like a speckled princess
I'll try to cash in clovers for gold
So I'll light a candle and begin to write
Turn to my work as refuge
Though my womb is a rush hour taxi ride
But I will try
To metamorphose pain along my plight
But I'll despise each word I write
So I am clinging to the edge
Like some soap-opera star with her ten second fade
The lights cascade
Do you love me anymore?
Do you know that I won't sleep?
No, I won't sleep all night long
As your silhouette turns its back on my spoon
I'm mesmerized by the ricochet moon
Leaping this rumplestiltskin's wall
I'm so disenchanting
Intoxicated by my own tear's soul
And come tomorrow when my beauty is old
Like a speckled princess
And come tomorrow
When my beauty is old
Like a speckled princess
Straw into gold
Straw into gold
Straw into gold
Straw into gold
Spinning for mercy
Spinning for hope
I am spinning for some lover, ooh
Don't you know I am spinning for some gold?
Do you realize I'm clinging to the edge of this bed?
I have nowhere to go, I have nowhere
If I leave, you'll call me quitter
If I stay, you'll punish me with silence and somehow
You'll fall asleep, you'll fall asleep
Well, do you know that I won't sleep?
No, I won't sleep all night long
As your silhouette turns its' back on my spoon
I'm mesmerized by the ricochet moon
Leaping this leprechaun's wall
I'm so disenchanting
Intoxicated by my own tear's soul
And come tomorrow, when my beauty is old
Like a speckled princess
I'll try to cash in clovers for gold
So I'll light a candle and begin to write
Turn to my work as refuge
Though my womb is a rush hour taxi ride
But I will try
To metamorphose pain along my plight
But I'll despise each word I write
So I am clinging to the edge
Like some soap-opera star with her ten second fade
The lights cascade
Do you love me anymore?
Do you know that I won't sleep?
No, I won't sleep all night long
As your silhouette turns its back on my spoon
I'm mesmerized by the ricochet moon
Leaping this rumplestiltskin's wall
I'm so disenchanting
Intoxicated by my own tear's soul
And come tomorrow when my beauty is old
Like a speckled princess
And come tomorrow
When my beauty is old
Like a speckled princess
Straw into gold
Straw into gold
Straw into gold
Straw into gold
Spinning for mercy
Spinning for hope
I am spinning for some lover, ooh
Don't you know I am spinning for some gold?
