Electrolite Lyrics
Your eyes are burning holes through me.
I'm gasoline.
I'm burnin' clean.
Twentieth century go and sleep.
You're plasticine.
That is obscene.
That is obscene.
You are the star tonight.
You shine electric outta sight.
You light...
I'm gasoline.
I'm burnin' clean.
Twentieth century go and sleep.
You're plasticine.
That is obscene.
That is obscene.
You are the star tonight.
You shine electric outta sight.
You light...

Yeah, I think thats it for sure. He's so indirect in his imagery and endlessly interesting too. These are puzzles and poems that ring and ring. The end is so cryptic. Suicide? Maybe a renunciation of being a star at all--how absurd it has now become for everyone is becoming a star day by day. Fifteen Minutes! That's a coffee break!!!!!
