downtown venus lyrics

i always thought it was..
downtown venus where simplicity is always heard..

and

cause im failing to entertain all of my selves

:donno: :donno: :donno: :donno:

Downtown Venus

I'm Downtown Venus, And I'm trying to be by myself.....myself
Habitual dreamers, And no one dreams enought to get me home
I'm Downtown Venus, And they're trying to devine my self.....my self (and they keep saying)

(chorus)
You could be into you but you don't know what you're like
yeah.....you would be into you but you don't know what you're like.

I'm Downtown Venus, And it's alright to kiss my life.....my life
I got misdemeanors, Mounting up for sleeping on the "nows"
I'm Downtown Venus, And I can't get behind my worth....my worth (but they keep saying)

(chorus)

I'm downtown Venus, where simplicity is always hurt....always hurt
I can't stop screamin', 'cause I'm falling to entertain all of my selves
I'm Downtown Venus And I constantly remind myself....my self

I could be into me but....I don't know what I'm like
Yeah...I could be into me but....I dont' know what I'm like.............

the lyric booklet in jesus wept says "failing", not "falling".

Dunno...but I suspect the lyric sheet could be wrong...there's a bunch of mistakes in the Bliss Album insert.

well, i think the booklet's correct in this instance, as was hiero's original impressions. "falling" doesn't really make any sense in that context

failing gets my vote, because of the context and that is what it sounds like to me.

great! because of been singing along to it all this time..and to be singing along with the wrong lyrics would suck

Oh it happens all the time Tim, especially if you're a Seal Fan.

yeah you usually have to make your own idea & agree or disagree when you read the lyrics. there is always a chance it could be wrong.

patient eyes:

"but i stand so fat"

I kinda thought it was

"Downtown Venus, where simplicity is always hurried"

I could be wrong, I probably am, but I like the sound of it anyway.

:donno:

I've always thought of it as where simplicity is always held...
