[Lyric] With Velvet Hand (The Brand New Shoes)

Hey, cool guitar boy
Loneliness is the warmest drug
It wraps you up and tightens up and traps you
Hey, cool guitar boy
If you’re feeling out of place, I can fly you into space
I can turn your hand to velvet and I’ll melt it down in front of your face
Hey, cool guitar boy
I find heaven in your company
I love the way you look and I love the way you look at me
Hey, cool guitar boy
Press me up against your lips
I think I might be the only girl you ever learned to kiss

You’ve got a hunger in your eyes
There are great big walls in your brain
Concealing fields of thunder
Lеt me underneath your skin
Rеsign to sunshine from within
I can see it in your eyes
You’re so fucking sick of the rain
Let me be your holy sacrament
There’s no more rain inside these walls
A vacant gaze and you’re laughing at the haze
Condensing on the window pane
Ooh, Heavenly Blue
It’s hard to be lonely when you’re talking to the only Alice that’ll talk to you

Sit on the floor before the morning falls, inglorious
Put it off and lay here on the ply
You say you think you see an angel
Another strange abstraction of tonight
Hotel breakfast tastes more like the Eucharist
Put it off and stay up here with me
Lying listless as we listen to the frantic footsteps falling through the hallways
I will always set you free

She’s got a sadness in her eyes
There’s an empty seat on the plane
Although she isn’t sleeping
She still keeps the sun from seeping
Through the windowpane to you
I can see it in your eyes
You’re so fucking sick of their pain
Baby, let me be your liberation

There’s no more pain inside these halls
A vacant stare and we’re falling through the air
Flying anywhere together
Ooh, Heavenly Blue
It’s hard to be lonely when you’re talking to the only Alice that’ll talk to you
