    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.............
    I've got amnesia.. I can't remember..

    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.
    I'm not signing this without my lawyer.

    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.
    fullamyself, sickamyself, truetamyself

    I will always be myself - through the good times and the bad.

    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.
    Life isn't measured by breaths you take, but the moments in life that take your breath away....

    P.S..If You are a fake..don't tell me..I don't wanna know..

    Save your breath..I'm can't say I'm sorry enough..for me

    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 just don't end up where think I'm going when I start out.

    I've always thought of it as where simplicity is always held...
    Life isn't measured by breaths you take, but the moments in life that take your breath away....
