Neil Cicierega
Cemetery Girl in Kansas
Oh, knowing what we know
Knowing what we don't know
This is gonna change our world
Feeling how I feel
I'll accept the unreal
If you'd be my no-eyed girl
From nowhere mankind can go
There's too much light
Blinding white
Your matter tells mine to scatter
It's alri-i-i-ight
(She always looked at me through a cemetery window)
It's alright
From the moment that we met, I've been awake
Like I've never been awake in all my life
(She made a life of me, and it turned me off of feeling)
If I spoke your language I could tell you how I feel
But your language isn't real
(Now, she took me by surprise, I never had the notice)
In every myth there's a little bit of truth
But I cannot say a thing, I cannot say a thing
(I couldn't realize that there always was a window)
(An ordinary window)
Without proof, oh no
She taught her spite to me
And I never even noticed
She tried to talk to me
But I didn't want to notice
(Sleep pushing down on me)
Knowing what we know
(Pushing down on me)
Knowing we do not know
This is gonna change our world
(But I just can't close my eyes)
I might go insane
(To sacrifice)
If I learn your full name
If you'd be my no-eyed girl
From nowhere mankind can go
(Leave never to be seen)
There's too much light
(To be seen)
Blinding white
(Pain is never make-believe)
Emotions, human implosions
(In paradise)
It's alri-i-i-ight
It's alright
Right before the kiss I noticed something in the air
Molecules existed when there should have been none there
Chemical reactions with the surface of your skin
Some will say my actions let the no-eyed people in
And I'd do it all again
And I'd do it all again
