Bethlehem Castle (Suicide Scarves)

Bethlehem Castle (Suicide Scarves)

Bethlehem Castle
I couldn't understand
You wanted to hold me to a promise
You wanted to hold my hand.

Bethlehem Castle
I couldn't force my heart
To fall down to it's broken knees
And tear myself apart.

Bethlehem Castle
I'm cutting up my books
Looking for the rescue flight
I'm relying on my looks.

Bethlehem Castle
You stole a prayer-scarf today
Stole a guitar from the milit'ry
And now you're learning how to play.

Waiting for your prince to come
And you know he never will
You sold your passport to a chariot driver
And now he's footing your bill.

Never seem to think of flying
When you're sitting in your room
Well, I'm waiting for the rescue flight
And they're waiting for you.

You've got a lot of nerve
To say you are my friend
You've got a lot of nerve
To cut me up like this.

Don't you ever look inside
The magazines you buy?
Don't you ever wonder why
You always miss the bus?

Don't you ever do the waltz
With all your stupid friends?
Don't you ever want to sleep
With every single boy?

Don't you ever want to sleep
With every single girl?
I know I don't, oh no.
Never catch me like that.

You can't catch me like that.
You can't catch me like that.
You can't catch me like that.
You can't catch me out like that.

I know I don't.
Oh, I know I don't.
