Marlene On The Wall (Live)

Even if I am in love with you

All this to say whats it to you

Observe the blood the rose tattoo

Of the fingerprints on me from you

Other evidence has shown

That you and I are still alone

We skirt around the danger zone

Marlene watches from the wall

Her mocking smile says it all

As the records the rise and fall

Of every soldier passing

But the only soldier now is me

I am fighting things I cannot see

I think its called my destiny

That I am changing

Marlene on the wall

I walk to your house in the afternoon

By the butcher shot with the sawdust strewn

Don't give away the goods too soon

Is waht she might have told me

And I tried so hard to resist

When you held me in your handsome fist

And reminded me of the night we kissed

And why I should be leaving

Marlene watches from the wall

Her mocking smile says it all

As she records the rise and fall

Of every soldier passing

But the only soldier now is me

I'm fighting things I cannot see

I think it's called my destiny

That I am changing

Marlene on the wall

Marlene watches from the wall

Her mocking smile says it all

As she records the rise and fall

Of every soldier passing

But the only soldier now is me

I'm fighting things I cannot see

I think it's called my destiny

That I am changing

Marlene on the wall

And even if I am in love with you

All this to say what's it to you

Observe the blood the rose tattoo

Of the finger prints on me from you

Other evidence has shown

That you and I are still alone

We skirt around the danger zone

And don't talk about it later

And I tried so hard to resist

When you held me in your handsome fist

And reminded me of the night we kissed

And of why I should be leaving

Marlene watches from the wall

Her mocking smile says it all

As she records the rise and fall

Of every man who's been here

But the only one here now is me

I'm fighting things I cannot see

I think it's called my destiny

That I am changing changing changing changing

Marlene watches from the wall

Her mocking smile says it all

As she records the rise and fall

Of every soldier passing

But the only soldier now is me

I'm fighting things I cannot see

I think it's called my destiny

That I am changing

Marlene on the wall
