She Understands

She flies into the darkness like a dead butterfly,
She speaks of crazy children and she makes me feel sad,
Her eyes are slightly yellow, slightly green, slightly blue,
She says 'I love people, but I can’t love you'.
I met her in the garden of the house with no roof,
The flowers around her were beginning to bloom
She said: 'Don't look at me or you’ll start getting old.
Your promise of freedom was sold years ago'.
She understands
I don’t
I don’t
She touches the sky
I don’t
I don’t
I don’t know
A million invitations for a strange ball arrive.
The city was burning and I drove through the fire.
I went into the ballroom; she was dressed like a queen.
She said: 'You'll be fine', and she just disappeared.
She understands
I don’t
I don’t
She touches the sky
I don’t
I don’t
I don’t know
I don’t
I don’t
I don’t know (x3)
