about

This track is written as a concept piece from the perspective of Humbert Humbert, the protagonist? of Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov.

lyrics

And I was lost
I'm still lost
There's no warmth in your arms
I can't find refuge from her eyes in your eyes
But I'm alive

And you found me
And you loved me
Though I'm not who I should be
Because of her, though I'm good to you
I don't think I can love you

Because of my love in a princedom by the sea
There's another man
Is he better than me?
And if you're leaving, fuck all our "love"
Take you things before push comes to shove

And I love her. I don't love you
But she's now gone, she died in Corfu
Oh my god, oh my god...

Oh Anna, hold me

Oh Anna, hold me, oh Anna I'm so lonely, oh Anna you're my one and only oh, Anna won't you hold me?

So I'm leaving. You do the same.
America calls my name.
There I will live. Maybe I'll love
Oh my god, oh my god.
