[rev. June 29, 2013]

An open door, an extended hand
What can I say, I understand
She talks like a bird, yet she walks like a man
She'll be here tonight I understand

She hunts in a pack, yet she ends up alone
She tells you its not alright darling
Why'd you worship that stone?

Hold me closer ladyboy
There's a rope that's dragging you out of this world
It doesn't care if you're heavy girl
Hold me closer ladyboy
If you look you can see that it's just you and me
There is nothing left of our world

So you think it's a sin
I'll bet it's a miracle
You think that you're safe
I tell you you're critical

The merciless gods
Who sometimes pour down their scorn
They cannot die
And also cannot be born

An open door, an extended hand
What can I say, I understand
I understand, I understand, I understand
