Literally my favorite villager song, but pretty much all of Villagers songs are near perfections

You are my lighthouse to my broken ship. I've been there a few times .thanks for reminding me.

absolute magic. and I only discovered this on Spotify. gosh

I miss this song and I'm always so disappointed it didn't blow up the way it deserved.

I've just discovered this jewel… I can't stop crying, it is so beautiful it hurts...

Played it a 100 times walking with my dog and cant get rid of it... Thank you so much for this Song..❤️ / Hamburg Germany

Finding something with this quality lyricism it's pretty hard these days plus all the melody and vocals that work perfectly... Thank you.

beautiful

The city lights are beckoning The sirens softly call Of the fantasist and fetishists are preparing the ball When you've been stuck here on the doorstep with nothing to forsake Well you might as well be anyone's to take So I give myself to strangers like i gave myself to you But the tenderness are felt has been replaced by something new And in the orgy I can vaguely hear the outline of your call Well I might as well be anyone's at all Every memory is sailing to the kingdom of your soul As you patiently await and lose all sense of self control You were the lighthouse to my broken boat But I've left you behind Now I might as well be anyone's to find Take my body take it from me It is not worthy of your memory Take my body take it from me It is not worthy of your memory I remember you undressing as I set myself on fire And the funeral was quick as I lay lifeless on your pyre Well it's a kind of desperation And it's just something you can't fake Oh I might as well be anyone's to take So I give myself to strangers like I gave myself to you But the unity I felt has been replaced by something new Now I am Helen and I am Mary Jane I am Robert and I am Paul Oh I might as well be anyone at all Yes I might as well be anyone at all Oh I might as well be anyone at all Oh I might as well be anyone at all Anyone at all Anyone at all Anyone at all

Idk if this will be appreciated and idk if it's anything that was being thought about but Biblically, and, foundationally, this song encapsulates the meaning of obeying God. See, when you dismiss the virtue of staying pure or doing the right thing you basically create a world to live in where what's real and true means nothing. "I might as well be anyone at all." That's absolutely where it goes when you ignore what's true. That's what the serpent meant to instill, "You won't surely die.", or, in other words, "Nothing matters." But it all does matter. That's why you can't get away with treating yourself or someone else without dignity or holiness. That's why sin leads to death. When you miss the mark, when you fail to give value to what matters, you strip away at your own soul and the soul of things. That's where the guilt comes from, where the conviction comes from. This song does a great job of showing something so precious being used the wrong way and leading to the conclusion that, well, that you don't matter. But that's a lie: "When you eat of it, you will surely die." Everything you do matters; there is consequences. There is pain. There is wrong.

Ah sorry.. where can I find the lyrics.. I do not understand sthg in the first lines?
