Xiu Xiu
I Dream of Someone Else Entirely
[Verse 1: Jamie Stewart & Owen Pallett]
A barbershop mushroom of blonded hair
Two stomped upon children dressed up as parents

[Pre-Chorus: Jamie Stewart & Owen Pallett]
All of us, always humiliated
All of us, always tightened in fear
All of us, always a scream
All of us, always shy, shy shy

[Chorus: Jamie Stewart & Owen Pallett]
I dream of someone else entirely
I dream of someone else entirely
You said to me
"When I think of this family and who is in it
How is that supposed to make me feel about myself?"

[Verse 2: Jamie Stewart & Owen Pallett]
A punishment bottle of hot sauce
Complete and totaled insanity crudely assembling one life

[Pre-Chorus: Jamie Stewart & Owen Pallett]
All of us, always odd
All of us, always nite peoples
All of us, always quiet as a breech
All of us, always waiting awake
[Chorus: Jamie Stewart & Owen Pallett]
I dream of someone else entirely
I dream of someone else entirely
To've yelled in my little face
"It sounds phony when you say 'I love you, mom!'"

[Pre-Chorus: Jamie Stewart & Owen Pallett / Both]
All of us, always whipsawed
All of us, always bewitched by shade
All of us, always dis-considered
All of us, always together alone

[Chorus: Jamie Stewart / Jamie Stewart & Owen Pallett ]
I dream of someone else entirely
I dream of someone else entirely
Burst apart by the knuckling jockeys and merchant seaman
I dream of someone else entirely
