*OLD SONG ALERT* *OLD SONG ALERT*

I think the song that fits Clearsight the most is Marlene On The Wall by Suzanne Vega. It's all about being in a conflicted relationship and not being able to avoid the pitfalls, and that pretty much sums her up.


Even if I am in love with you

All this to say, what's it to you?

Observe the blood, the rose tattoo

On the fingerprints on me from you

Other evidence has shown that

You and I are still alone, we

Skirt around the danger zone

And don't talk about it later


Marlene watches from the wall

Her mocking smile says it all

As she records the rise and fall

Of every soldier passing

But the only solder now is me

I'm fighting things I cannot see

And I think it's called my destiny

That I am changing

Marlene on the wall


I walk to your house in the afternoon

By the butcher's shop with sawdust strewn

"Don't give away the goods too soon"

Is what she might have told me

And I tried so hard to resist

When you held me in your handsome fist

And reminded me of the night we kissed

And why I should be leaving


Marlene watches from the wall

Her mocking smile says it all

As she records the rise and fall

Of every soldier passing

But the only solder now is me

I'm fighting things I cannot see

And I think it's called my destiny

That I am changing

Marlene on the wall


Marlene watches from the wall

Her mocking smile says it all

As she records the rise and fall

Of every soldier passing

But the only solder now is me

I'm fighting things I cannot see

And I think it's called my destiny

That I am changing

Marlene on the wall


Even if I am in love with you

All this to say, what's it to you?

Observe the blood, the rose tattoo

Of the fingerprints on me from you

And I tried so hard to resist

When you held me in your handsome fist

And reminded me of the night we kissed

And why I should be leaving


Marlene watches from the wall

Her mocking smile says it all

As she records the rise and fall

Of every soldier passing

But the only solder now is me

I'm fighting things I cannot see

And I think it's called my destiny

That I am changing

Changing

Changing

Marlene watches from the wall

Her mocking smile says it all

As she records the rise and fall

Of every man who's been here

But the only solder now is me

I'm fighting things I cannot see

And I think it's called my destiny

That I am changing

Marlene on the wall
