Prince Of Mars Lyrics - Kitchens Of Distinction

Hide him away from the backhand of angry 

He'll sit quietly as the fizzyness flows around 

Never seen wars before, never been to a party 

He says "they laugh like balloons, they dance like baboons 

They're so different when it's dark" 

Hiding away as the noise gets louder 

Watching the people loose in the corridor 

Too many questions 

He can't stay long, this is not his world 

"Why are their lips even redder than 

The bad one in Snow White 

Why do they shout so, are they in pain 

I don't understand 

Can't stay much longer, I must tame my fox 

So this is what goes on when you grow old." 

Hiding away in memory now sits my Prince laughing 

He had to go, we all have to go, there's too much I didn't ask 

Like "what happens when you know the answer 

But they're so used to you being wrong? 

And why this cover when caught inside 

We're heavy hearted, too close to the knives 

Our hearts are closing like hammer horror walls 

Fingermarked skin, hurt to the bone 

We don't understand 

Oh, my Prince, answer please 

I'll get the pencils 

We'll draw ourselves a new world."
