In a forest pitch dark
Glowed the tiniest spark
It burst into flame
Like me
Like me

My name Isobel
Married to myself
My love Isobel
Living by herself

In a heart full of dust
Lives a creature called lust
It surprises and scares
Like me
Like me

My name Isobel
Married to myself
My love Isobel
Living by herself

When she does it she means to
Moth delivers her message
Unexplained on your collar
Crawling in silence
A simple excuse

Nana na na na, nana na na na
Nana na na na, nana na na na

In a tower of steel
Nature forges a deal
To raise wonderful hell
Like me
Like me

My name Isobel
Married to myself
My love Isobel
Living by herself

When she does it she means to
Moth delivers her message
Unexplained on your collar
Crawling in silence
A simple excuse

Nana na na na, nana na na na
Nana na na na, nana na na na
Nana na na na, nana na na na
Nana na na na, nana na na na

even bjork was thinking about isobel, as she had some enlightened motive for doing her sorcery with moths ... while it was isobel´s ego who cannot handle the change she was isolated from... story of isobel is like: she had the only truth, so others had to obey her truth... still not gettin it? well, I guess it is still not time for this kind of self-knoledge.. ;) later ... :D
