Nietzsche's Eyes lyrics

How many times did I have to hear you say to me

Self obsessed artist,

Center of your universe?

Well, I believed your every word

And I believed you were my God

Nietzsche's eyes, Nietzsche's kite

Failed in flight to us, and oh my love...

Grandmother, mother, and now I see it in myself

I take on the water

until the dam threatens to break

I became a little doll

My voice became too small

Nietzsche's eyes, Nietzsche's kite

failed in flight to us, and oh my love...

I'm shakin', I'm shakin', I'm gettin' down this fantasy

And I'm shakin', I'm shakin', I'm gettin' down this, gettin' down this

You were not my Superman

I didn't know, just how I fell

Oh my love...

I'm shakin', I.... oh, I'm gettin' down this,

You were not my Superman...

I wasn't honest, I tried to philosophize

Only too late did I see that I wore Nietzsche's eyes

Now that I step back to see, I haven't been me...

And oh my love...

Nietzsche's eyes (oh my love), Nietzsche's kite (oh my love)

failed in flight to us (oh my love), and oh my love

I'm shakin', I'm shakin', I'm gettin' down this fantasy

And I'm shakin', I'm shakin',

I'm gettin' down this, gettin' down this

gettin' down this, gettin' down this, gettin' down this

gettin' down this, gettin' down this, gettin' down this

gettin' down this, gettin' down this, gettin' down this...
