Artist: Dime Store Prophets
Song: Hitler's Girlfriend
Album: Love is Against the Grain
Written by Dime Store Prophets
Someone left the window open,
and cold air's slowly creepin' in
I'm sitting watching TV sitcoms,
where everyone is happy in the end
And I'm beginning to believe it
Some say we can get by without the help of a friend
And I'm lying here, I'm remotely controlled
Strapped to an engine stuck on idle
I don't feel 'cause I fear, don't love 'cause I lost
(don't know, don't want to know)
I'm not myself 'til you are you...if I close my eyes, I'm killing you
I carry the weight of this safety net, so
I feel like Hitler's girlfriend...I'm blind to this and numb to that
I know a girl who draws happy faces on everything she writes
She doesn't fool me...
I've seen her bag of troubles, and it's not light
Don't you know I want to reach out, cry for her
Carry the weight, but something just won't let me leave the couch
There's a scream and a chain and a knife
And her head is full of spirits
I don't get too close, might get what she got
(my foot is asleep)
Chorus
I was sprawled out at the foot of my bed with a rage of fire
Goin' 'round in my head...and I said,
"Could this be the salt of the earth in my tears?"
I was watching Miss Brown, some say she didn't know
Just took another Judas' kiss now
Well I'm not blaming you...was there something you could do?
(my coffee's cold)
Chorus 2x (2nd ending changes slightly)
I'm blind to this and numb to that
