Tori Amos - Scarlet's Walk (Scarlet's Walk)

leaving terra
leaving terra

if you're a thought
you will want me
to think you
and I did

invite a Guest
up until you announced
that
you had moved in
"what do you plan to do
with all your freedom?"
the new sheriff said,
quite proud of his
Badge
"you must admit the Land is now
in good hands"

yes, time will tell that
you just life your lamp

I will follow
Her on her path
Scarlet's Walk
through the voilets
just tell your
Gods for me
all debts are off this year
they're free to leave
yes they're free
to leave

leaving terra
leaving terra

there was a time
when i thought that
Her destiny
should've been
mine
Big Brave Nation
but instead her Medicine
now forgotten

"what do you plan to do
with all your stories"
the new sheriff said,
quite proud of his Badge
we'll weave them through
every
rocket's red glare
and
huddled masses
you just lift your lamp

I will follow
Her on her path
Scarlet's Walk
through the violets
just tell your
Gods for me
all debts are off this year
they're free to leave
yes they're free
to leave

leaving terra
leaving terra

if you're a thought
you will want me
to think you
and I did
and I did

I guess people who don't have "Pele" or haven't seen the CD singles might think that. I remembered them all as being shot around that time, but wow, it has been 13 years since Boys For Pele came out. Your comment makes me think that that's what Tori was going for. They are really vulnerable & in the context of her life experiences can be uncomfortable. But in "Talula"'s lyrics she sort of "owns it" - "i've got my rape hat on honey but I always could accesorize". She's OK. He didn't break her!

I hadn't really considered that anyone could take these photos to be "real". A little naive on my part probably, but to me they're so obviously staged, at least in the context of the whole montage sequence. Looking at the video again I see that at least four of the shots( 1:26, 2:04, 2:42 and 3:21) have a certain unsettling voyeuristic quality. I always thought that those photos were uncomfortable to look at, but I think I underestimated the reason why this is so.

For everybody who like a singer or a band like Jonas Brothers will be sorry when they get older cause they song will become a crap.Take a look like Vanilla Ice.Even the singer was take the CD and smash it..Hahahaha... So start looking a singer/a band/and a song that inspired you most.Not to just make u happy and make u missing someone. Im sorry guy's,no offence,it's true... "LUST" is my fav song. Peace ya'll.
