0:26Well you know I don't like you
0:28But you wanna be my friend
0:31Well there are bodies on the ceiling
0:33And they're fluttering their wings
0:36It's ok I'm angry
0:39But you'll never understand
0:43When you dream of Michelangelo
0:46They hang above your hands
0:49And I know that she is not my friend
0:54And I know cause there she goes
0:58Walking on my skin again
1:02And I can't why you'd want to talk to me
1:07When your vision of America is crystalline and clean
1:13I want a white bread life
1:15Just something ignorant and plain
1:19But from the walls of Michelangelo I'm dangling again
1:25And I know that she is not my friend
1:30And I know cause there she goes
1:35Walking on my skin again and again
1:41Saturn on a line
1:44A sun afire on strings and wires
1:46To spin above my head and make it right
1:53But any time you like
1:55You can catch a sight of angel eyes all emptiness and infinite
2:01And I dream of Michelangelo when I'm lying in my bed
2:07I see god upon the ceiling I see angels overhead
2:12And he seems so close as he reaches out his hand
2:19But we are never quite as close as we are led to understand
2:25And I know that she is not my friend
2:30And I know cause there she goes
2:34Walking
2:37And I know that she is not my friend
2:42And I know cause there she goes
2:46Walking on my skin again and again
2:58Walking on my skin again and again
Well you know I don't like you But you wanna be my friend Well there are bodies on the ceiling And they're fluttering their wings It's ok I'm angry But you'll never understand When you dream of Michelangelo They hang above your hands And I know that she is not my friend And I know cause there she goes Walking on my skin again And I can't why you'd want to talk to me When your vision of America is crystalline and clean I want a white bread life Just something ignorant and plain But from the walls of Michelangelo I'm dangling again And I know that she is not my friend And I know cause there she goes Walking on my skin again and again Saturn on a line A sun afire on strings and wires To spin above my head and make it right But any time you like You can catch a sight of angel eyes all emptiness and infinite And I dream of Michelangelo when I'm lying in my bed I see god upon the ceiling I see angels overhead And he seems so close as he reaches out his hand But we are never quite as close as we are led to understand And I know that she is not my friend And I know cause there she goes Walking And I know that she is not my friend And I know cause there she goes Walking on my skin again and again Walking on my skin again and again
