Athena it's terrifying, it hits me where I live
Bright green eyes from crying, so hot you fry an egg

Oh what a bother I forgot what I want
I'm ripped open and I'm scooped out
I kick the shinbone of my saint
I kiss the shinbone of my snake
It feels like saying please

Don't you want it now?
I leave so fast I knock it over
I have never seen snow
You were born in deep Moscow
Different parts of me love you
Nothing in me knows how
It's a rough dream to hear you sing
It feels like saying please
What a bother to be a dead ringer
To stop and cry in front of every mirror
To forget what you want to do

Athena it's terrifying, it hits me where I live
Bright green eyes from crying, so hot you fry an egg
So hot that I can't move
I don't know what I want from you
So hot that I can't move
Don't you want it now?
