sylvia
lyrics & music by peter c marinari 9.15.98

fall day/ my head hurts/ again but not before/ sun's gone/ behind a cloud/ a chill in my bones/ look at me/ stripped down/ striped down to a pose // two nights ago/ i felt like sylvia/ 2am in a dark place/ two nights ago/ i wished i was sylvia/ where's my razor blade/ i need to sleep now/ // / swing set/ an insect/ trap me in a jar/ children/ i've got to get/ got to get so far/ two nights ago/ i felt like sylvia/ 4am in a dark place/ two nights ago/ i wished i was sylvia/ won't my razor break/ it's almost dawn/ // / nightturnstodayina nightintodayfora nightwaslikedayina nightjustlikedayfora // / a chill breeze/ that swing again/ i'm trapped outside my bones/ stone church/ front step/ i'm lost... so lost, and no one's home // two nights ago/ i felt like sylvia/ 6am in my cell/ two nights ago/ i read sylvia/ my razor's weak/ my blood flows to[o] slow/ oh, sylvia/ sylvia...
