Coney Island
Lyrics
She swallowed swords
Dressed like a gypsy queen
Old black wood stage
Ten feet in front of me
I watched the world slip away
A pale reflection in her blade
She drew in flame
Gasoline across her arms
Tongue to the torches
Yet she remained unharmed
A saw a flicker of real life
Dance 'cross her eyes in the stage light
And the waves crashed over Coney Island
So fast and so violent
They washed away
Oh, they washed away
You said that we
Could as you anything
You would not lie
You'd answer everything
I kept my questions to myself
Was too afraid to let them out
And the waves crashed over Coney Island
So fast and so violent
They washed away
Oh, they washed away
You painted waves on the window panes
Like you were daring the hurricane
To come back again
And the waves crashed over Coney Island
So fast and so violent
They washed away
Oh, they washed away
