The Flaming Lips and Nell Smith - Girl in Amber

Some go and some stay behind
Some never move at all
Girl in amber trapped forever
Spinning down the hall
Let no part of her go unremembered
Clothes across the floor
Girl in amber lumber slumber
Shuts the bathroom door

The phone, the phone the phone it rings
The phone it rings no more
The song, the song, the song it spins
Since nineteen eighty-four
The phone, the phone, the phone it rings
The phone it rings no more
The song, the song
It's been spinning now since nineteen
If you want to bleed
Just bleed
If you want to bleed
Just bleed
And if you want to bleed
Don't breathe
A word

I get lucky
I get lucky 'cause I tried again
I knew the world it would stop spinning now
Since you've been gone
I used to think that when you died
You kind of wandered the world
In a slumber 'til you crumbled
Were absorbed into the earth
Well, I don't think that any more
Any more
Any more

If you want to bleed
Just bleed
If you want to bleed
Just bleed
And if you want to bleed
Don't breathe
A word

If you want to bleed
Just bleed
If you want to bleed
Just bleed
And if you want to bleed
Don't breathe
A word
