E-Bow The Letter - R.E.M.

Lyrics by：Bill Berry/Michael Stipe/Mike Mills/Peter Buck

Composed by：Bill Berry/Michael Stipe/Mike Mills/Peter Buck

Look up what do you see

All of you and all of me

Fluorescent and starry some of them they surprise

The bus ride I went to write this 4:00 a.m this letter

Fields of poppies little pearls all the boys and all the girls

Sweet-toothed each and every one a little scary

I said your name I wore it like a badge of teenage film stars

Hash bars cherry mash and tinfoil tiaras

Dreaming of Maria Callas whoever she is

This fame thing I don't get it

I wrap my hand in plastic to try to look through it

Maybelline eyes and girl-as-boy moves

It can take you far this star thing I don't get it

I'll take you over there

I'll take you over there

Aluminum tastes like fear

Adrenaline it pulls us near

I'll take you over there

It tastes like fear

I'll take you over

Will you live to 83

Will you ever welcome me

Will you show me something that nobody else has seen

Smoke it drink here comes the flood anything to thin the blood

These corrosives do their magic slowly and sweet

Phone eat it drink just another chink

Cuts and dents they catch the light

Aluminum the weakest link

I don't want to disappoint you I'm not here to anoint you

I would lick your feet but is that the sickest move

I wear my own crown of sadness and sorrow

And who'd have thought tomorrow would be so strange

My loss and here we go again

I'll take you over there

I'll take you over there

Aluminum tastes like fear

Adrenaline it pulls us near

I'll take you over there

It tastes like fear pulls us near

I'll take you over

Look up and what do you see

All of you and all of me florescent and starry

And some of them they surprise

I can't look it in the eyes Seconal Spanish fly absinthe kerosene

Cherry-flavored neck and collar

I can smell the sorrow on your breath

The sweat the victory and sorrow the smell of fear

I got it

I'll take you over there

Aluminum tastes like fear

Adrenaline it pulls us near

I'll take you over take you there

Aluminum tastes like fear

Adrenaline it pulls us near

I'll take you over take you there

It tastes like fear pulls us near

I'll take you over take you there

It tastes like fear pulls us near

Pulls us near

It tastes like fear

Tastes like fear

Pulls us near

Pulls us near

Near near

Over over over over

And nearer and nearer

Over over yeah

Oh oh

I'll take you over

Yeah

I'll take you over I'll take you there

Oh over

I'll take you there

Over baby

I'll take you over

There there

I'll take you there

There baby
