Madonna Horrible Complex Lyrics - Singles - Emily Plazek

This is her voice still echoing, replaying in your mind 

This is that conversation tone 

That touching tongue, this sound reminds 

You see her now, eyes back 

As raising chin lifts to greet sky 

As if that girl knew everything, 

As if she'd answer "Why?" 

But between her steps, the music fell, she woke tangled in sheets 

Her skin wrinkled, her palms aware of the crying in the streets 

Madonna's horrible secret, she's in just as much pain 

Mamihlapinatapai, truth is no one leaves unscathed 

Remind me why we're here when all's fallen apart 

Remind me what i shouldn't fear 

when all I feel's a broken heart? 

Do you believe that you're alone in this? 

You really think the other's ok? 

He's wasted, scraping ocean floor 

She'd drowning, too, miles away 

Boy doesn't know she's scared and cold 

She's tasting rum tonight 

Dark as nightmare, thick as regret, 

this burning blood her body fights 

His t-shirt shred in shock, and trophies smashed on brick 

Those letters that each never sent 

could have saved all of this 

But he held her high on pedestal and locked his mouth in fear 

And she hung on a broken heart, suspended in a tear 

Madonna's horrible secret, she's in just as much pain 

Mamihlapinatapai, truth is no one leaves unscathed 

Remind me why we're here when all's fallen apart 

Remind me what I shouldn't fear when all I feel's a broken heart 

Do you believe that you're alone in this? 

You really think the other's ok? 

He's wasted, scraping ocean floor 

She's drowning, too, miles away 

He held her up too high 

She couldn't read his mind 

Complex, he let her slip away 

So sad, she wished that she could have stayed 

Remind me why we're here when all's fallen apart 

Remind me what I shouldn't fear when all I feel's a broken heart 

Do you believe that you're alone in this? 

You really think the other's ok? 

He's wasted, scraping ocean floor 

She's drowning, too, miles away
