A Blue Monday

i'm a fountain of blood
in the shape of a girl
you're the bird on the brim hypnotized by the whirl
drink me - make me feel real
wet your beak in the stream
game we're playing is life
love is a two way dream

leave me now - return tonight
the tide will show you the way
if you forget my name
you will go astray
like a killer whale
trapped in a bay

i'm a path of cinders
burning under your feet
you're the one who walks me
i'm your one way street
i'm a whisper in water
a secret for you to hear
you are the one who grows distant
when i beckon you near

leave me now - return tonight
the tide will show you the way
if you forget my name, you will go astray
like a killer whale trapped in a bay

i'm a tree that grows hearts
one for each that you take
you're the intruders hands
i'm the branch that you break

("Bachelorette", Björk)
