lyrics

cause girls like her they dont just die
no i just refuse to believe that they just die
girls that do fly so high
say its good to cry
standing naked in a naked sky
this girl she got so high
she could reach through the glass
smash thru like a superfemme quatermass
she could make a bee line
to the living divine
we all know shes divine
but maybe the world at last would see the divine
dancing on dreamline
red head as a peace sign
freckles in the night sky
girls like her just dont die
no they just dont die
someone gotta make us die
to even really try, but theyll make us
and theyll come you
they will come for me
lock us in a prison
and then set us free
cause we girls we just dont die
they have to make us die
the cruelty of hands
will work the wire
that will tighten around us
only then do we die
once a time we died where the cruelty of hands had to just lie still
to make us die
its always the hands
we forever stay alive
otherwise
nobody just dies

she wanted to reach so high
up to the moon she would climb
and she was more determined than the world she left behind
but i know shed use the world as a springboard to get there
climbing on the willing loving hands of the girls fair
that she all inspired to climb just as high
even to try
she was meant to dance on the moon and sky
she would just not die
never would she just die
she had way to much to do
she never would have fallen from so high
was the cruelty of hands in the building
in a room underneath the roof where she was standing
the hands always come from many arms
meaning to do harm
to a far reaching spectrum of us
it could have been anyone
whether paid or just for fun
the ruling was unusually swift and innocent

a life lived fighting the climb of respect
and never getting much in perspective
no one ever wants us having respect
not in any industry or profession
in a scape of sound that is so bound tight
by the stubbornness of hypnotism in plato’s light
they’ve found a cave theyll never leave
and they forced her to stay in the oil
of every pearls un insides
never said her name
never gave her any spotlight
never any respect
never gleaned from her insight
and we know that like her they dont just die
no i just refuse to believe that they die
girls that do fly so high
say its good to cry
standing naked in a naked sky
this girl damn she got so high

and i live in a sophie sigh
she lived the long of it in a sophie sigh
