April And The Phantom

Lyrics

When April passes by, she thinks of saying bye
 She tells her mother, "I am not afraid
 Of dying in the bath, or swinging from up here"
 She asks her mother if she slept with strangers
 Phantom was the bright way out
 Of all the things her mother said
 A whisper to her scream
 An autumn in my green
 December, hello frost
 Her mother would say
 "Dad, I don't know where April went"
 She ran out in nature!
 She ran out in nature!
 She ran out in nature!
 She ran out in nature!
 She ran out in nature
 She ran out in nature
 I found the Phantom would go (She ran out in nature)
 Across the river and hide from suffering
 Like the shades of trees (She ran out in nature)
 Take off my dress and flow into the stuff we're in
 She ran out in nature
 What'd she find?
 She ran out in nature
 Where'd she go?
 She ran out in nature
 Phantom light
 She ran out in nature
 Take her home
 Everybody wants it!
 Aaah! Can't you see me wastin'?
 She ran out in nature
 She ran out in nature
 We've gotta buy land (She ran out in nature)
 When they go out and take all the stuff we're in
 We've got neither, reachin' for the stars (She ran out in nature)
 And beg and keep us sufferin'
 She ran out in nature
 What'd she find?
 She ran out in nature
 Where'd she go?
 She ran out in nature
 Can't somebody
 She ran out in nature
 Take her home?
 Everybody wants it!
 Aaah! Can't you see me wastin'!
 I finally see a baby girl
 I'm sorry April, but you'll be fine 'til then
 I'm the Phantom
 I'm the Phantom
 I'm the Phantom
 When I sneak around, and you're on top
 A frenzy April, and then we ride again
 I'm the Phantom
 I'm the Phantom
 I'm the Phantom
 I'm the Phantom
 In the end, your mother knows
 I'm sorry April, but a child grows
 I'm the Phantom
 I'm the Phantom
 I'm the Phantom
 I am
 Watch me as I lead the way
 From infancy to grown up babies
 "Phantom, please put on my make-up!"
 I am breathin', I'll keep callin'
 "Phantom, you're all white and naked!"
 Have your baby, I'll keep callin'
 "I'm not right, I'm not fakin'!"
 I am burnin', and I'm shakin'
 "April, no, it's just a spirit!"
 I am there, end is nearin'
 April and the Phantom
 They were just like lovers
 Always sneakin' kisses for the weekend
 Everything's just okay with me
 Everything's just alright with
 April and the Phantom spoke in secret code
 Until they buried Phantom by the road
 Everything's just alright with me
 Everything's just alright with Phantom
 Everything's just alright with me
 Everything's just alright with Phantom
 Everything's just alright with me
 Everything's just alright with Phantom
 Everything's just alright with me
 Everything's just alright with Phantom
 Kiddy has got no friends
 Kiddy has got no friends
 Kiddy has got no friends at all
