Nemesis lyrics

Neath an avalanche Soft as moss

I'm a creeping-in, intangible sense of loss

I'm the memory you can't get out your head

If I leave you now

You'll wish you were somewhere else instead

I'm the manta ray

I'm the louse

I am the photograph

They found in your burned down house

I'm the sound of money washing down the drain

I am the pack of lies

The baby that keeps you sane, hey

Gates of heaven are open wide

God help me baby I'm trapped inside

Feel like I'm buried alive

I'm, I'm the bottom line Of the joke

I'm in ecstasy

Spilling like bright egg-yolk

I'm the thoughts you're too ashamed to ever share

And I am the smell of it

You're trying to wash out of your hair

Gates of heaven are open wide

God help me baby I'm lost inside

Feels like I'm buried alive

The possibilities limitless

Just give me something that's more than this

One shot and I'll never miss

I'm the babe that sleeps

Through the Blitz

I am a sudden and quite unexpected twist

I am your one true love who sleeps with someone else

I am your nemesis

Baby I'm life sweet life itself
