Lit Me Up
Lyrics
This tape recounts a dream Which occurred close to the termination of approximately 400 hours of intensive, individual therapy Now, the patient recounts her dream ♪ I had this dream earlier this morning and I wrote it down The dream is that I'm in some sort of a And I'm in a hotel I'm at I'm like at a convention or something And I feel sort of almost like there's too much going on There are all different kinds of meetings going on Stuff on experimental psych and therapy, chemical aspects All of it ♪ But I'm, while I I don't mind having all this going on inside of me It's sort of, I think I'm going to be relived when it's over When I can sort of settle back down ♪ It's where you live, but you don't know how it's built ♪ If we're just dust, then it doesn't matter who you kill ♪ Don't cut me up and tell me that it's ok ♪ Just turn it off 'cause I don't care anyway It lit me up It lit me up It lit me up It lit me up Something's stirring in a deep Atlantic trench ♪ Doesn't forget the thousand years before it slept ♪ It's the beast, it's my heart, it's open ♪ Dive down into its unit in its head It lit me up It lit me up It lit me up It lit me up It lit me up like a torch on a pitch black night Like an ember in the needles of a dried up pine Lit me up and I burn from the inside out Yeah, I burn like a witch in a Puritan town It lit me It lit me When I grow up I want to be a heretic I want to climb over the wall 'cause I'm not on the list I want to put my hands to work until the work's done ♪ I want to open up my heart like the ocean It lit me up It lit me up It lit me up It lit me up It lit me up like a rag soaked in gasoline In the neck of the bottle breaking right at my feet It lit me up and I burned from the inside out Yeah, I burned like a witch in a Puritan town It lit me ♪ It was a good dream
