A Cleaner Light Lyrics - Singles - Kristin Hersh

A high 

That's a swell take on this situation 

I was trying to rectify 

I was trying to skip out on this high 

Keep away from the freaks on the fringe 

They only talk to you 

'Cause you give them a good excuse to cry 

But in a cleaner light, it's ok 

In a cleaner light, it's ok 

In a better light, it's ok 

In a better light, it's ok 

This strange old sunshine beats me senseless 

But it's supposed to be keeping me healthy 

It's a lie 

You're a strange old thing that keeps me senseless 

But you're supposed to be keeping me company 

But in a cleaner light, it's ok 

In a cleaner light, it's ok 

In a better light, it's ok 

In a better light, it's ok 

I wake up feeling fragile 

It's nothing the TV couldn't cure 

Or lying here for my whole life 

But in a cleaner light, it's ok 

In a cleaner light, it's ok 

In a better light, it's ok 

In a better light, it's ok 

They only talk to you 'cause you're there
