Other Half Of Me

Icon of Coil · The Soul Is In The Software [2002]

Let me feel the strength that you felt

Still hunting in your eyes

Let me taste the life that you have tasted

Let me feel the power of your supplies

Let me reach my goal

Give me the shimmering in your eyes



I'm here to claim my soul

And the shimmering in your eyes

The other half of me

And all the pieces are left behind

I'm here to claim my soul

And the shimmering in your eyes

The other half of me

And all the pieces are left behind

That are left behind



You are my drugs

You are my demens

Am I still alive?

I always knew some thing were missing



Let me feel the pain that you felt

I'm still counting the days

Still drifting, searching for myself

For myself...



I'm here to claim my soul

And the shimmering in your eyes

The other half of me

And all the pieces are left behind

I'm here to claim my soul

And the shimmering in your eyes

The other half of me

And all the pieces are left behind

That are left behind



I'm here to claim my soul

And the shimmering in your eyes

The other half of me

And all the pieces are left behind

I'm here to claim my soul

And the shimmering in your eyes

The other half of me

And all the pieces are left behind

I'm here to claim my soul

And the shimmering in your eyes

The other half of me

And all the pieces are left behind

That are left behind
