Lyrics:
Place her on the mantelpiece I love your- I love your ambiguity Revise antiquity I love your- I love your ambiguity Revise antiquity I love your
And I'll be the memory that my mum keeps on the mantelpiece About a boy that grew to be nothing more then misery And I'll be the memory that my mum keeps
I just need a little bit of clarity Take it back We don't need your charity Almost there Just your love on a mantelpiece Hold up Light it up with
And I know I keep repeating You say I’m getting boring I’m sorry Up upon your mantelpiece I can give you love Keep me on the low As you make me give it
The soldiers of happiness have gone to sleep The mirror on the mantelpiece tells me it's time to leave Because the soldiers of happiness have gone
to me Come home to me Come home to me You know well the circus' gonna have you on a fucking mantelpiece The mantelpiece The mantelpiece
cause you know I'm not bold So could you count off with me like Five six seven Eight Sweep me away Sweep me away Like the dust piled up on the mantelpiece
between Seen your upside, downside, all you have been And I see your picture frame on our mantelpiece I sometimes I imagine you strolling down urban
Edith Wharton's lovely figurines Still speak to me today From their mantelpiece in time Where they wrestle and they play With passions and with
Sentimental ornament Enamel animal I keep the wild and free On the mantelpiece Elegant elephant Emotional element It keeps the memory Mold it in
Little figurine on her podium Precisely placed on your mantelpiece Perfectly carved yet so incomplete Collecting dust since the day you placed me
You’re that face in my picture Dressed in white lace You’re that face in my picture Sat on the mantelpiece On that day, second week of May
And the love love love love love When I could could could could could You want me back on the mantelpiece Setting all the traps for these fools But
Yes, I gave it all away Even the statues on your mantelpiece Now you're gone I confront myself The days are long, the night stifles me I was never
Portrait on the mantelpiece Woman I did not know She took a sip from the devil’s cup, She drank alone in the darkest hour Carried the girl who
to fade away Into the background of a picture that she didn’t want to take Framed and crumbling on the mantelpiece at someone else’s wake (wake) me up
My brain is in the bottle On the doctor's mantelpiece No need to worry about the fall The candyfloss thoughts have ceased I'm not crazy Anymore Saw
unseen consciousness, I possessed in my grip A magnificent mantelpiece, though its heart being chipped Noticing not that I'd already slipped To the sin
weary brain It's funny, there's a fire full of flames But above it, in the centre of the mantelpiece Is One Candle, dancing in the mirror One Candle
Little wooden soldier boy, How he's bored to be a toy. Sitting on the mantelpiece, Was not his idea of peace. So one night at half past one, He
the blue sky There's a small boat made of china Going nowhere on the mantelpiece Do I lie like a lounge room lizard Or do I sing like a bird
Hanging my stocking on the mantelpiece Mary puttin' tinsel on the Christmas tree Granny cuttin' cookies Pies bakin' in the oven Mama cooked
jaded by the Grammy's on the mantelpiece Just switch your camera lenses, you would see the agony Apparently it's damaging the man you see before you
on the mantelpiece Just switch your camera lenses you would see the agony Apparently it's damaging the man you see before you On the canvas he may seem alright But all
