the real thing (female)

[Verse 1] Bring me the silver of the child that brought me home Give her in life what I have always called a home Bring me the knife to free myself from pity and shame that I blame myself for [Chorus] 'Cause I'm cutting free today We're talking blue horizons I'm cutting free today Where everything's good, good as the real thing [Verse 2] Gold of the ghost who scares my life from wading in Formaldehyde my pride to keep me wading in Well I cut with the blade, the ropes become loose and I float away and strand my soul on the shore [Chorus] 'Cause I'm cutting free today We're talking blue horizons I'm cutting free today Where everything's good, good as the real thing [Bridge] One thing they'll know is that we'll always be alone One thing they'll see is these things can't be undone (yeah) One thing they'll find is that you have to find your home And then, only then, you'll be free [Verse 3] Platinum rings and things that will produce a smile Walks in the fields and no more on for miles and miles The bond with the glue, the clouds slip away and the pity and shame is a memory no more [Chorus] 'Cause I'm cutting free today We're talking blue horizons I'm cutting free today
