Nietzsche's Eyes Lyrics - Paula Cole

How many times did 

I have to hear you say to me 

Self obsessed artist 

Center of your universe 

Well I believed your every word 

And I believed you were my god 

Nietzsche's eyes 

Nietzsche's kind 

Failed in flight to us 

And all my love 

Grandmother Mother 

And now I see it in myself 

I take on the water 

Until the dam threatens to break 

I became a little dull 

My voice became too small 

Nietzsche's eyes 

Nietzsche's kind 

Failed in flight to us 

And all my love 

I'm shakin' I'm shakin' I'm getting down this fantasy 

And I'm shakin' I'm shakin' 

I'm getting down this 

Getting down this 

You were not my superman 

I didn't know 

Just held the phone 

All my love I'm shakin' I'm shakin' 

I'm getting down this fantasy 

I'm shakin' I'm shakin' 

I'm getting down this, getting down this 

You were not my superman 

I wasn't honest 

I tried to philosophize 

Only too late did 

I see I wore Nietzsche's eyes 

Now that I step back to see 

I haven't been me 

Nietzsche's eyes 

Nietzsche's kind 

Failed in flight to us 

And all my love 

I'm shakin' I'm shakin' 

I'm getting down this fantasy 

And I'm shakin' 

I'm shakin' 

I'm getting down this 

Getting down this
