Candy Says Lyrics by Martin L. Gore

Counterfeit²

2003

[Verse 1]
Candy says, I've come to hate my body
And all that it requires in this world
Candy says, I'd like to know completely
What all they so discretely talk about
[Chorus]
I'm gonna watch the blue birds fly
Over my shoulder
I'm gonna watch them pass me by
Maybe when I'm older
What do you think I'd see
If I could walk away from me
[Verse 2]
Candy says, I hate the quiet places
That cause the smallest taste of what will be
Candy says, I hate the big decisions
That cause endless revisions in my mind
[Chorus]
I'm gonna watch the blue birds fly
Over my shoulder
I'm gonna watch them pass me by
Maybe when I'm older
What do you think I'd see
If I could walk away from me
