Lolita

from Megiddo by Lauren Hoffman

/

lyrics

Burning
Still faithful
And smoking cigarettes he falters
Yearning
Fr one taste-full
Soft brown skin
Cool water

He said I'll keep you clean
He said I'll feed you my sweet Lolita
He said don't ever fear for
I'll be ever near my Lolita

Turning
To danger
And taken in by lovely strangers
My thirsty
Little angel
Are you sleeping in the devil's manger?

He said I'll keep you clean
He said I'll feed you my sweet Lolita
He said don't ever fear for
I'll be ever near my Lolita

She's sleeping
So peaceful
She's everything
She's everything,
But she's awaking
And my heart's breaking
She's taking all her pretty things away

He said I'll keep you clean
He said I'll feed you my sweet Lolita
He said don't ever fear for
I'll be ever near my Lolita
He said I'll keep you clean
He said I'll feed you my sweet Lolita
He said don't ever fear for
I'll be ever near my Lolita
