Виски (feat. John Grant) - Bi-2

You just want to live your life The best way you know how But they keep on telling you That you are not allowed They say you are sick That you should hang your head in shame They are pointing fingers And want you to take the blame There are days when people are So nasty and convincing They say things beyond belief That sting and leave you wincing And to boot they say their words Come straight down from above And they really seem to think That what they're doing counts as love This pain It is a glacier moving through you And carving out deep valleys And creating spectacular landscapes And nourishing the ground With precious minerals and other stuff So, don't you become paralyzed with fear When things seem particularly rough Don't you pay them fuckers as they say no never mind They don't give two shits about you. It's the blind leading the blind What they want is commonly referred to as theocracy And what that boils down to is referred as hypocrisy Don't listen to anyone; get answers on your own Even if it means that sometimes you feel quite alone No one on this planet can tell you what to believe People like to talk a lot, and they like to deceive This pain It is a glacier moving through you And carving out deep valleys And creating spectacular landscapes And nourishing the ground With precious minerals and other stuff So, don't you become paralyzed with fear When things seem particularly rough This pain It is a glacier moving through you And carving out deep valleys And creating spectacular landscapes And nourishing the ground With precious minerals and other stuff So, don't you become paralyzed with fear When things seem particularly rough

My love is the rarest jewel And he crowns me with his love My love he is rich like caramel And he moves me from above He sees me with tiger eyes And that's where I make my home His heart is a shield which protects me from the vilest foe His smile's an elixer which heals the wounds of my darkest years My love is quiet I consider him and he drives away my fears My love he reveals himself with tenderness and grace My love has constructed with his arms for me the safest place His laughter destroys my doubts and lifts me up so high His voice it is soothing like a warm breeze on a summer night When he envelops me I give myself to him and my soul takes flight

Billy, as the world tries hard to cheat death once again I've got some extra time Which I thought that I would spend By working on your song And it's shameful and I'm sorry that it's taken me so long Billy, you are always on my mind and I think back to When I first laid eyes on you at Paris On The Platte I saw you walking in And immediately fell victim to your Tractor-beam-like grin Billy, we're so different but I think you must agree That we could not support the weight of expectation And it forced us to our knees And we set about destroying ourselves As members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult of masculinity Billy, I remember how you let me stay at your place As a birthday gift, it was on the night of July 25th And we both slept in the same bed You didn't care, you let me know That you were not afraid Billy, you have always made me feel like royalty And I always looked up to you And you always made me feel like I was loved But then I had to walk away Because I know that I would follow you Right to my own grave Billy, we're so different but I think you must agree That we're both disappointments To so many folks in this society So we continue with the task of punishing ourselves But maybe you don't think I'm weak And maybe someday soon we'll speak Just like we used to do When you were you and I was me Billy, we're so different but I think you must agree That we could not support the weight of expectation And it forced us to our knees And we set about destroying ourselves As members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult of masculinity
