lyrics to "glue"

[goldalinemydear]

ok.. so.. I'm sure this has been asked before.. but I'm too lazy to see if anyone has replied. I went on a little search for the lyrics and came up with nothing, so, I decided to do it myself. If anyone could check these and make sure they are correct it would be helpful. Because of the way jeff and scott announciate when they sing, a few of the words were hard to make out.

ok.. here it goes.

Glue

She comes to me whenever I am locked inside my room; buried in the tomb that I call love.
She sings to me; the words cannot hear but then the melody’s so clear it makes me cry.
Her love is so beautiful.
Her love is so real, it smells like glue.
She’s leaving me to find a place she never will call home. I stand shaking like a stone smile inside. She’s calling me to come to her and curl/crawl inside her womb I hear lies and acid (?) too but I won’t die.
The pain is so beautiful.
Her love is so real, it smells like glue.
And I will scream; she hears me. I will tell myself she loves me and all the lies and fears will stick to me like glue.
And I will scream; she hears me. I will tell myself she loves me and all the lies and fears will stick to me like glue.

Here's the lyrics taken from sashwap'site.

She comes to me
Whenever I am locked inside my room
Buried in the tune that I call love

She sings to me, the words I cannot hear
But then, the melody's so clear it makes me cry
Her love is so beautiful
Her love is so real, it smells like glue

She's leaving me to find a place she never will call home
I stand shaking like a stone
And smile inside

She's calling me to come to her and curl inside her womb
I hear lies, acid too
But I won't die, the pain is so beautiful
The urge is so real, it smells like glue

And I will scream, she hears me
I will tell myself she loves me
And all the lies and fears
Will stick to me like glue

And I will scream, she hears me
I will tell myself she loves me
And all the lies and fears
Will stick to me like glue


The two versions are pretty similar, good job guys :)

Hello fellows, as you may all know, Neutral Milk Hotel have covered this song and I think it's absolutely delightful. As I am clueless about what the Gerbils originally sound like, I was just wondering if it is in any way similar to the NMH cover, and on what album it is off, and what other band you could compare it to.

God I am so demanding!

I honestly like The Gerbils' version much better. Seriously, it is great.
