about

Project Elwhaeko's latest release 'Jacqueline'.

lyrics

You're dancing with delusion,
Waltzing through a dream,
If you think that I will take you out like that, Jacqueline.

Pull razors from your pocket,
With a ticket to the ball,
I think that in some distant way I like the way you roll.

And I heard you screaming something,
At an oscillating man,
Face down on the cobbles singing,
You make fairy tales of the devil's plans.

At sixteen, Jacqueline, was this so unforeseen?

Face pressed to a window,
Of a taxi on your own,
En route so an establishment that you may call your own.

There’s something very sad about,
The way you’ve been since school,
So take a line and dance with everyone that hated you.

And I heard you screaming something,
At an oscillating man,
Face down on the cobbles singing,
You make fairy tales of the devil's plans.

At sixteen, Jacqueline, was this so unforeseen?
At seventeen, Jacqueline, was this so unforeseen?
At twenty three, Jacqueline, was this so unforeseen?
