Paroles

[Verse 1]
They call you ecstasy nothing ever sticks to you
Not velcro, not scotch tape not my arms dipped in glue
Not if I wrap myself in nylon
A piece of duct tape down my back
Love pierced the arrow with the twelve and I can't get you back
[Verse 2]
Ah, ecstasy
Ecstasy
Ah, ecstasy
[Verse 3]
Across the streets an old Ford, they took off its wheels
The engine is gone
In its seat sits a box
With a note that says, Goodbye Charlie, thanks a lot
[Verse 4]
I see a child through a window with a bib
And I think of us and what we almost did
The Hudson rocketing with light
The ships pass the Statue of Liberty at night
[Verse 5]
They call it ecstasy, ah
Ecstasy
Ecstasy, ah
Ecstasy
[Verse 6]
Some men call me St. Ivory some call me St. Maurice
I'm smooth as alabaster with white veins runnin' through my cheeks
A big stud through my eyebrow a scar on my arm that says, Domain
I put it over the tattoo that contained your name
[Verse 7]
They called you ecstasy, ecstasy
Ecstasy
They call you ecstasy, ecstasy
Ecstasy
[Verse 8]
The moon passing through a cloud
A body facing up is floating towards a crowd
And I think of a time and what I couldn't do
I couldn't hold you close, I couldn't, I couldn't become you
[Verse 9]
They call you ecstasy, I can't hold you down
I can't hold you up
I feel like that car that I saw today, no radio
No engine, no hood
[Verse 10]
I'm going to the cafe, I hope they've got music
And I hope that they can play
But if we have to part
I'll have a new scar right over my heart
I'll call it ecstasy
[Verse 11]
Oh, ecstasy, ecstasy
Ecstasy
Ecstasy
Ecstasy
Ecstasy
