lyrics

Rumours.
What can I say
to draw the attention away

before I'm a hunchback
before I go blind
before I freeze to death in the street?

Before this buffet
but I don't want to eat
even though I have not for a week.

Look what I did.
I'm not helpless.
I have bled by my own hand.

Rumours.
What can I do?
I need truth
or Love to get me through.

Rumours.
What can I say
to draw the attention away?
