Beth Orton- Stolen Car
I really enjoy this song especially when she rhymes gone with cinnamon. Also the line:
your fingers are like fuses
Here is an exerpt of the lyrics:
You said you stand for every known abuse
That was ever threatened to anyone but you.
And why should I know better by now
When I’m old enough not to?
While every line speaks the language of love
It never held the meaning I was thinking of.
And I can’t decide over right or wrong.
She repeats that line about abuse changing it each time:
Next it becomes:
You said you stood for every known abuse that was ever promised to anyone like you
and then:
Oh, yeah, you stand for every known abuse that I’ve ever seen my way through.
