Charlotte Hatherley Siberia Lyrics

Crisis of confidence
In everything you do
Your lies are all spilling out
They're coming fast and loose

Nobody talks in black and white
Are there no straight answers anymore?
In your Emerald City
Sitting so pretty
Over the opium sea

Hold on
We're in oblivion
Falling way down
I'm bending over backwards
Into Siberian Khatru
Anyone of you
Know the way to get home?

Hubris honey you broke
My only golden rule
You never truly know somebody
Never know where they have been before

A leader great and powerful
You made a crisis unavoidable
In your Emerald City
Sitting so pretty
Over the opium sea

Hold on
We're in oblivion
Falling way down
I'm bending over backwards
Cling to
The tether to the truth
All this tapestry
My god it's so unnecessary
All I really want is for it to be, oh
Is for it to be, oh what a feeling!
But I'm gone in oblivion
Anyone of you
Know the way to get home?

Oh no
Didn't you see?
That it's all the same
It doesn't matter where you are? Oh no
Now you can see
That underneath
It's not as good as what you thought
Oh no
Didn't you see?
That it's all the same
It doesn't matter where you are?

Long way down
In oblivion
Bending over backwards
Hold on
Long way down
Bending over backwards

Oh no
Nothing to show
Under it all
It's not as good as what you thought
Way down
Into the ground
Underneath
Far as far as you can see

Hold on
We're in oblivion
Falling way down
I'm bending over backwards
Cling to
The tether to the truth
All this tapestry
My god it's so unnecessary
All I really want is for it to be, oh
Is for it to be, oh what a feeling!
But I'm gone in oblivion
Anyone of you
Know the way to get home?

Hold on
In oblivion
Long way down
Bending over backwards
Anybody know the way to go to get me home?
Hold on
In oblivion
Long way down
Bending over backwards
Anybody know the way to go to get me home?
