Emily Haines:The View

Who deserves a pretty tangled dream
Green hillside, hands inside hands
I lay before you like unclaimed land
You drove your bulldozer over,
Wrote your name in the sand

I am new, watch the smoke move through
You've got this world, and the wine in your hand

So you drink it down, then you look at me
Offer me some watered-down potion
Eau de toilette of devotion
Tell me you've been saving it for me
Tell me you've been saving it for me

Who deserves a pretty tangled dream
Green hillside, hands inside hands
I lay before you like unclaimed land
Clear economic potential
You hung yourself in the sky frozen blue
My smile, a tattoo, you're happy, happy with what you've created
Tell me to choose like some big suit tycoon

Go on drink it down, look at me
Offer me some watered-down potion
Eau de toilette of devotion
Tell me you've been saving it for me
Tell me you've been saving it for me

You used to shine, I can't find where you drink it down
Yeah, look at me, offer me a watered-down potion
Eau de toilette of devotion

Drink it down, look at me
And offer me some watered-down potion
Eau de toilette of devotion
Tell me you've been saving it for me
Tell me you've been saving it for me
