Kate Davis Salome Lyrics
Salome by Kate Davis
[Verse 1]
I'm a sucker for your charms
I can't help but sing along to your song
Hold your hand
Soak up the sadness from your eyes
Don't cry
Play pretend, friend
[Verse 2]
This is your one woman show
I'm hanging onto every word you craft
Do you hear your name in God's admonition?
Listen
[Chorus]
Salome
Now you're upright victorious and barefoot with my head in your hands
I warned you of the evening's malevolent moon
She's taken total control over you
But Salome
Now you stand here in front of me
Paralyzed and unable to dance
Your righteousness is a second guess
Your audience begs the question
[Interlude]
What good's a head that's dead?
[Bridge]
Princess take us down with the ship
[Chorus]
Salome
Now you stand here in front of me
Paralyzed and unable to dance
Your righteousness is a second guess
Your audience begs the question
[Outro]
What good's a head
What good's a head
What good's a head that's dead?
I'm a sucker for your charms
I can't help but sing along to your song
Hold your hand
Soak up the sadness from your eyes
Don't cry
Play pretend, friend
[Verse 2]
This is your one woman show
I'm hanging onto every word you craft
Do you hear your name in God's admonition?
Listen
[Chorus]
Salome
Now you're upright victorious and barefoot with my head in your hands
I warned you of the evening's malevolent moon
She's taken total control over you
But Salome
Now you stand here in front of me
Paralyzed and unable to dance
Your righteousness is a second guess
Your audience begs the question
[Interlude]
What good's a head that's dead?
[Bridge]
Princess take us down with the ship
[Chorus]
Salome
Now you stand here in front of me
Paralyzed and unable to dance
Your righteousness is a second guess
Your audience begs the question
[Outro]
What good's a head
What good's a head
What good's a head that's dead?
