Amanda Palmer Blake Says Lyrics

Blake Says Lyrics

Blake says no-one ever really loved him

They just faked it to get money
from the government 

And Blake thinks angels grow when you plant angel
dust

He shakes his head and blinks his pretty eyes but trust me

He's no valentine, though he said he would be mine

His heart is in
Alaska all the time



Blake stays underwater for the most part

He collects loose change for all tomorrow's parties 

and when Blake
dates girls with tattoos of the Pyramids

he breaks their hearts by saying
it's not permanent



But in his velvet mind

He believes with
all his might

We'll all go to Alaska when we die



Blake makes
friends but only for the minute

He prefers the things he orders from the
internet

and Blake's been having trouble with his head again

He
takes his pills but doesn't take his medicine



He tells me that
he's fine 

and the sad thing is he's right

and when it's two
o'clock, he feels like dying



Blake says he is sorry he got through
to me

if it's OK, he'll call right back and talk to the machine

Blake says it looks like acid rain today

he takes the fish inside, he's
very kind that way



But just like Caroline

He doesn't seem to
mind

The globe is getting warmer all the time



It's still
cold in Alaska

It's still cold in Alaska.
