When I see lay down
Under pink lacquered skies
Baby, I'll give you something
That'll shut your eyes
To this mess
When I love you baby
I mean it more than just the whole world
And when, I take a picture thats instant
Lost tonight, oh baby it burned (burns)
I said I remember it so, I saw your eyes
Go through the tunnel, and I remember
Australian sun, I was eight years old
You were Marilyn Monroe...
Ohahhhya gotta
Take it, oh ya take it on, playing backyard
Blues, blackheart stuck up in their jaw
I can nail, I'll nail this on,
Oh she ate the whole world
Break it down
Oh I've tasted, I tasted too, too many nights
Lost in space, I remember kneeling down
Oh my knees caught in the ground
When I love you baby
I mean it more than just the whole world
And when saw Gypsy Rose
Gypsy Rose... she rose to me
I remember a rolling stone
Oh rolling on down through your bones
Oh ya gotta save, you gotta save your soul well
She hates the whole world
When I love you baby
I mean it more than just the whole world
And when saw Gypsy Rose
Gypsy Rose... she rose to me
Baby
I love you baby I mean it more than just the whole world
And well, when I
Know your sin, I know your sin, I know your ways
Under pink lacquered skies
Baby, I'll give you something
That'll shut your eyes
To this mess
When I love you baby
I mean it more than just the whole world
And when, I take a picture thats instant
Lost tonight, oh baby it burned (burns)
I said I remember it so, I saw your eyes
Go through the tunnel, and I remember
Australian sun, I was eight years old
You were Marilyn Monroe...
Ohahhhya gotta
Take it, oh ya take it on, playing backyard
Blues, blackheart stuck up in their jaw
I can nail, I'll nail this on,
Oh she ate the whole world
Break it down
Oh I've tasted, I tasted too, too many nights
Lost in space, I remember kneeling down
Oh my knees caught in the ground
When I love you baby
I mean it more than just the whole world
And when saw Gypsy Rose
Gypsy Rose... she rose to me
I remember a rolling stone
Oh rolling on down through your bones
Oh ya gotta save, you gotta save your soul well
She hates the whole world
When I love you baby
I mean it more than just the whole world
And when saw Gypsy Rose
Gypsy Rose... she rose to me
Baby
I love you baby I mean it more than just the whole world
And well, when I
Know your sin, I know your sin, I know your ways

When I see ya lay down
Under pink lacquered skies
(when we are doing drugs, trying to escape from reality)
Baby, I'll give you something
That'll shut your eyes
To this mess
(I want you to be happy, I’ll want to save you from your heartache.)
When I love you baby
I mean it more than just the whole world
(Just remember that I will always love you more than anything in the world)
And when, I take a picture thats instant
Lost tonight, oh baby it burned (burns)
(We've had so many great experiences together, but tonight I'm trying to burn my memory away.)
I said I remember it so, I saw your eyes
Go through the tunnel, and I remember
(I remember how you used to be, and I saw how you changed.)
Australian sun, I was eight years old
You were Marilyn Monroe...
(I remember when we were little girls and you were so beautiful. You were like my idol.)
oh ya gotta take it
oh yeah take it on
playing backyard blues,
blackheart stuck up in their jaw
(we played pretend, wishing we were beautiful like joan jett, marilyn monroe and gypsy rose)
I can nail, I'll nail this on,
Oh she aint the whole world
Break it down
(but i can say this now, it isn't all we thought it would be)
Oh I've tasted, I tasted too, too many nights
Lost in space, I remember kneeling down
Oh my knees caught in the ground
(i've been stuck in a dark place for too long, i know what its like to be abused)
When I love you baby
I mean it more than just the whole world
(Just remember that I love you, I love you more than the whole world.)
And when I saw Gypsy Rose
Gypsy Rose... she rose to me
(Our idol Gypsy Rose came to me and told me of a better way)
I remember a rolling stone
Oh rolling on down through your bones
(I remember how we used to be wanderers. It was all we knew)
Oh ya gotta save, you gotta save your soul well
She hates the whole world
(Gypsy Rose said to save yourself, and that you have to protect yourself from the world.)
When I love you baby
I mean it more than just the whole world
And when saw Gypsy Rose
Gypsy Rose... she rose to me
Baby
I love you baby I mean it more than just the whole world
And well, when I
Know your sin, I know your sin, I know your ways
(Even though I know all your sins and your bad ways, I still love you.)
this is why i love listening to brody/the distillers, it is really like poetry. the lyrics are so beautiful and meaningful that there are so many different possible interpretations :')
Rose Lee is Brody's own Marilyn Monroe.
makes sense
When I see you lay down
Under pink lacquered skies
Baby I'll give you something
That'll shut your eyes
To this mess
When I love you baby
I mean it more than
Just the whole world
And when,
I take a picture
thats instant
Lost tonight
oh baby it burns
I said
I remember it so
I saw your eyes
Go through the tunnel
and I remember
Australian sun
I was eight years old
You were Marilyn Monroe
oh ya gotta take it
oh yeah take it on
playing backyard Blues
blackheart stuck up in their jaw
I can nail
I'll nail this on
Oh she ain't the whole world
Break it down
Oh I've tasted
I tasted too
too many nights
Lost in space
I remember
kneeling down
On my knees
caught in the ground
When I love you baby
I mean it more than just
the whole world
And when
saw gypsy rose
Gypsy rose
she rose to me
I remember
a rolling stone
Oh rolling on down
through your bones
Oh ya gotta save,
you gotta save your soul
well She ain't
the whole world
When I love you baby
I mean it more than just
the whole world
And when
saw gypsy rose
Gypsy rose
she rose to me Baby
I love you baby
I mean it more than just
the whole world
And well
when I know your sin
I know your sin
I know your wings
the distillers rock.
Brody is so hot.
(soz, had to throw that in)
That'll shut your eyes
To this mess")... I totally adore this song.
