LYRICS
 
Verse 1
 
I don’t look angelic in my sleep
And I feel I can’t get
Over it
And I feel my skin is
Running weak
And I feel my body
Unwrapping
If I comb my hair
And wash my feet
Will I feel the mirror
Un breaking
From the photographic memory
Of the song that I wrote
In my sleep
 
Pre-chorus/Canon
Following the steps of Venus
When she talks about her love
To me
Following the steps of Venus
When she talks about her love
To me
Following the steps of Venus
When she talks about her love
To me
Following the steps of Venus
When she talks about her love
 
 
Verse 2
If I close my eyes
And then I’d see
Just the way my mother
Looks at me
If I feel I’m dirty but I’m clean
Is it parts of me that are unseen
If reality is in my face
But my body takes up too much space
If I pull my hair and make it long enough
Will it wrap around my inner fears
 
Pre-chorus/Canon
Following the steps of Venus
When she talks about her love
To me
Following the steps of Venus
When she talks about her love
To me
Following the steps of Venus
When she talks about her love
To me
Following the steps of Venus
When she talks about her love
 
Chorus
On and on
and on
and on
I feel like coming home
I feel like coming home again
On and on
and on
and on
I feel like coming home
I feel like coming home again
On and on
and on
and on
I feel like coming home
I feel like coming home again
On and on
and on
and on
I feel like coming home
I feel like coming home again
On and on
and on
and on
I feel like coming home
I feel like coming home again
