Energy Whores – Evermore lyrics

Holding hands they walked through the snow to the duck pond beyond the hill
Two skinny youths wet in their boots she hoped the boy would kiss her
Frozen in time in the cold sunshine is how she remembers him still
How she remembers him still

Love, hope, music and flowers, filled her heart with dreams for hours
Desire is like a jet on fire crashing down on its first flight
He was the first of many more but she thought he’d be her forever
Forever more she could have swore, as he boarded the plane to Bangalore.

Holding a beer in her college years she met him by a speaker
Music so loud they screamed their names and then went behind the bleachers
In a piece of shit car outside a dive bar is where she remembers him still
Where she remembers him still

Booze, sex, weed and haze filled her brain with crap for days
Desire is like a jet on fire crashing down on its first flight
He was one of many more but she thought he’d be her forever
Forever more she could have swore as he said goodbye and shut the door

She met him at a Gallery show he went up her shirt and down below
The sex was great but he would state that love was an illusion
High on coke, paranoid and broke is how she remembers him still
How she remembers him still

Lies, drugs, lust and pain, she was only left to blame
Desire is like a jet on fire crashing down on its first flight
He was one of many more but she thought he’d be her forever
Forever more she could have swore as he lay face down on the floor.

They had an affair for 20 years. He was an old and wealthy financier
He said you are my life and I’ll leave my wife so we can be together
Smoking a cigar with his robe ajar is how she remembers him still
How she remembers him still

Loneliness, hope and tears, filled her heart with spite for years
Desire is like a jet on fire crashing down on its first flight
A lifetime plan with a married man, she’d be his forever
Forever more she said she swore to fuck it all and love no more.

Holding hands they walked through the snow to the duck pond beyond the hill
Two skinny youths wet in their boots she hoped the boy would kiss her
Frozen in time in the cold sunshine is how she remembers him still
How she remembers him still
Frozen in time in the cold sunshine is how she remembers him still
How she remembers him still
