On My Fingers - Iceage

They try to feed me in times of hunger

But I refuse their generous hands

Though I am a taker, an opportunist

I’ve got longings no offer can stand

Take a good look here

Marvel at this stunner of a being so profound

He must be our saviour

The second coming

He has come here to waltz around

I don’t care whose house is on fire

As long as I can warm myself at the blaze

Of burning furnish, cherished photographs

Unrelated hell

Come here and balance

On my fingers

They will be here for you

When its all you have left

I always lied to you, did you not know

And I’ll put you in manacles, doesn’t it show

Little bird land on my fingers

I will place a stone on each of your hostile wings

Can you transcend my force in your broken allure

Flee in my shackles, I’ll be coming after you

Take a good look here

Marvel at this stunner of a being so profound

He must be our saviour

The second coming

He has come here to waltz around

Come here and balance

On my fingers

They will be here for you

When its all you have left

I always lied to you, did you not know

And I’ll put you in manacles, doesn’t it show

Little bird land on my fingers

I will place a stone on each of your hostile wings

Can you transcend my force in your broken allure

Flee in my shackles, I’ll be coming after you

Come here and balance

On my fingers

They will be here for you

When its all you have left

I always lied to you, did you not know

And I’ll put you in manacles, doesn’t it show

Little bird land on my fingers

I will place a stone on each of your hostile wings

Can you transcend my force in your broken allure

Flee in my shackles, I’ll be coming after you
