Porcelain - Analog Heart

I see what you want me to see
Through rose colored glasses
I can't see the blood in my hand
Now you're over, You're so over
All Over my head
I pray to God I fight my way back to something familiar
Please tear me from this contraband
Now it's over, It's so over
It's under my bed

The paint is worn bare
Your eyes have starting fading
Were they ever even really there
Nothing to give with everything you take
The cracks in your smile make it impossible to decipher something legible
Your porcelain face and a heart of glass

No time for dependency
We're going over at light speed
No scenery to simulate
Something older, we grow older
But nothing ever seems to change
I pray to God you lose your way
Just something peculiar on one leg only I'll still take a stand
I fall over, a tall order
These dolls I need to rearrange

The paint is worn bare
Your eyes have started fading
Were they ever even really there
Nothing to give with everything you take
The cracks in your smile make it impossible to decipher something legible
Your porcelain face and a heart of glass (repeat)

Porcelain - Analog Heart

I see what you want me to see
Through rose colored glasses
I can't see the blood in my hand
Now you're over, You're so over
All Over my head
I pray to God I fight my way back to something familiar
Please tear me from this contraband
Now it's over, It's so over
It's under my bed

The paint is worn bare
Your eyes have starting fading
Were they ever even really there
Nothing to give with everything you take
The cracks in your smile make it impossible to decipher something legible
Your porcelain face and a heart of glass

No time for dependency
We're going over at light speed
No scenery to simulate
Something older, we grow older
But nothing ever seems to change
I pray to God you lose your way
Just something peculiar on one leg only I'll still take a stand
I fall over, a tall order
These dolls I need to rearrange

The paint is worn bare
Your eyes have started fading
Were they ever even really there
Nothing to give with everything you take
The cracks in your smile make it impossible to decipher something legible
Your porcelain face and a heart of glass (repeat)

honestly, i'm not even sure anymore. I just realized after listening to the clips on davidcooktheamericanidol.com that they are much better quality than the tracks I have on my ipod. I didn't get Analog Heart until after it was pulled so I found mine on the internet somewhere.

Listening again, I believe it could be stimulate. I'm not really sure which verb makes more sense in the lyric.

i wish we could just ask David... smile.gif

I think it's "stimulate". In the context of the line above, it just makes more sense to me.

ETA: Just listened to it again. It's definately "stimulate".

I am been singing to this song for months and it wasn't until I read this thread that I actually stopped and thought about that word ... it is definitely stimulate ...

I agree...stimulate.

I think it's "going NOWHERE at light speed," and I also vote for simulate instead of stimulate. You can simulate scenery, but it's pretty hard to stimulate it!

I think it is stimulate... I can sort of hear the ST sound huh.gif
