Xiu Xiu Get Up
[Verse 1]
A piano fell on my face
You told me to get up
When I could not control myself
You said to get up
Consciousness demolished
When I tried to hold the pain inside
You say to hold it in
[Chorus]
Love me forever
Don't forget me
It's late in the game to ask
But I'm still asking
[Verse 2]
A harmonica fell on my face
It did not hurt that much
If you leave no one will find my corpse
You said
Rise from the dead!
Sometimes a person cannot help what they do
You mumble to get up
Operating now without belief
You say sh sh sh
And to get up
[Bridge]
Do you hate me
Because I seem so stupid?
Or do you just very quickly
Hate me right back?
[Verse 3]
During the rape of everything decent
The flickering flames impressed me
A saxophone fell on my face
How is a mystery
When I am shocked
By my own foolishness
You say you are not as shocked
When I repeat that I am shocked by my own foolishness
You get up and leave the room
[Chorus]
Love me forever
Don't forget me
It's late in the game to ask
But I'm still asking you
[Post-Chorus]
You're the only reason I was born
You're the only reason I was born
[Instrumental Outro]
