the projectionist - thoushaltnot lyrics
sing me like a lullaby
read me like a book
you can steal me in an art fraud heist
just tuck me underneath your coat
and if you want to load me on the reel
and blare a blinding light through me
i’ll be a silent film and you’ll play the organ
to go with the pictures i show
when can i feel my skin again
as more than between blood and air?
i am what you tell me i am
you make me an endless text, and
you are my projectionist
give me like a war-time speech
and fight me like a war
invade me like the middle east
just bounce me off the satellites
but the picture’s out of focus now
the blackout’s all over town
so make me now a candle, bright
and push me through the powerlines
but when can i feel my skin again
as more than between blood and air?
i am what you tell me i am
you make me an endless text, and
i am what you think of next, and
you are my projectionist
shine a light through me so you can see
sing me in a different key, well
i’m your diary, who’s reading who now?
and who’s in whose skin?
turn on your tv, broadcast me
everywhere i want to be
i lift up a rock and find me there
when can i feel my skin again
as more than between blood and air?
i am what you tell me i am
you make me an endless text, and
i am what you think of next, and
you make me an endless text, and
i am what you think of next, and
you make me an endless text, and
i am what you think of next
in the burning theater i am blessed
for you are my projectionist
