Take To The Sky - Lyrics by Tori Amos


Lyrics

This house is like russia with eyes cold and grey,
You got me moving in a circle, i dyed my hair red today.

I just want a little passion to hold me in the dark,
I know i got some magic buried deep in my heart, yeah
But my priest says, "you ain't saving no souls."
My father says, "you ain't makin' any money."
My doctor says, "you just took it to the limit,"
And here i stand with this sword in my hand

You can say it one more time, what you don't like.
Let me hear it one more time
Then have a seat while i take to the sky, take to the sky.

My heart is like the ocean it gets in the way,
So close to touching freedom then i hear the guards call my name.
And my priest says, "you ain't saving no souls."
My father says, "you ain't makin' any money."
My doctor says, "you just took it to the limit,"
And here i stand with this sword in my hand

You can say it one more time, what you don't like.
Let me hear it one more time
Then have a seat while i take to the sky, take to the sky.

If you don't like me just a little, well, why do you hang around?
If you don't like me just a little, well, why do you hang around?
If you don't like me just a little, well, why do you take it, take it, take it?

This house is like russia
You can say it one more time, you can say it one more time,
You can say it one more time, what you don't like.
Let me hear it one more time
Then have a seat while i take to the sky, take to the sky,
Take to the sky, take to the sky, take to the sky.
