Louis XIV – The Distances From Everyone To You (Lyrics)
This song is from a Louis XIV’s EP Album (2007). I like it very much… and well, tried to find the lyrics but to my surprise there weren’t any. So, I took upon the task of transcribing them and here they are.
Big thanks to my friend “Pdonk” who helped me correcting some words I misheard.

Everyone around you wants your autograph
hunting around, placing bids for a backstage pass
Just to pin you up like a photograph
You’re a porcelain doll so fragile that could break so fast
You’re sipping the tea like a porcelain doll
You wanted the world
You wanted it all
You got glass for your eyes
A mouth for your soul
You conquered the world
and then nothing at all
And the distances from everyone to you is a universe
They’re listening to your phonographs
The critics are right in that everyone else is trash
They call you names like a psychopath
The market shop beauty turned you ugly till they make their cash
You’re sipping the tea like a porcelain doll
You wanted the world
You wanted it all
You got glass for your eyes
A mouth for your soul
You conquered the world
and then nothing at all
And the distances from everyone to you is a universe
The word love doesn’t change
The word love doesn’t change
The word love doesn’t change
The word pain doesn’t change
The word love doesn’t change
The word love doesn’t change
The word love doesn’t change
The word love doesn’t change
The word pain doesn’t change
The word love doesn’t change
The word love doesn’t change
The word grief doesn’t change
The word love doesn’t change
The word pain doesn’t change
The word love doesn’t change
The word pain doesn’t change
The word pain doesn’t change
The word love doesn’t change
The word love doesn’t change
The word…
You’re sipping the tea like a porcelain doll
You wanted the world
You wanted it all
You got glass for your eyes
A mouth for your soul
You conquered the world…
and then nothing at all
You’re sipping the tea like a porcelain doll
You wanted the world
You wanted it all
You got glass for your eyes
A mouth for your soul
You conquered the world
and then nothing at all
You found out and then nothing at all
Nice.
