Lithium

Baby, am I too big for my skin?
Baby, am I too far lost to win?

Sugar, sweet Sugar
I took your hand and followed you
Sugar, bitter Sugar
Buried me; I didn't have a clue

‘Cause I'm gone, so far gone
Sugar, somethin' feels wrong

Baby, am I too big for my skin?
Baby, am I too far lost to win?
Baby, baby, baby
Your love is needles and pins
Baby, am I too blue to carry on?
Baby, am I still too here to be gone?
Baby, baby, baby
This love is something wrong

Honey, sweet honey
I'm falling away, can't you see?
Honey, sickly honey
I'm falling and you won't catch me

And the light is so far away
Only white is what I need today

Baby, am I too big for my skin?
Baby, am I too far lost to win?
Baby, baby, baby

Lovely, lovely lovely
Lovely lithium is so damn lovely
Lovely, fucking lovely
Get the loveliness out of me

Get it out
Get it out, please
It's breaking my brain in two

Get it out
Get it out, please!
It's breaking my bones in two

Get it out!
Get it out now, please!
It's breaking my
Breaking my
Breaking my heart in two

And no one knows it but you
So get it out, get it out
Get it out, get it out
Get it, get it
Get it, get it
Out, out
Get the lovely out!
