Little Boy Lyrics


Little boy;
Why did you have to chase me so hard?
Didn't your mother show you what to do?
Didn't your father tell you not to push?
Little boy;
We could have been great friends
But you frightened me to death you see
You made a rabbit out of me
And now we can't go back to being anything
Perhaps I ought to thank you
For you took my innocence away
And made me cruel
How did you know I'd need that later on?
You taught me to hide and you taught me to lie
And to tremble at the telephone
To scream but never cry
Surely you were wise beyond your years
For you planted in me unknown fears

That since I've met time and again
I wish I could have known it then
I might have been grateful for the experience
Rather than for the darkness
sSo useful to the hunted deer who doesn't know the way
But really I would not have known
Into how many arms a girl will let herself be thrown
Just to escape the one who wants her most?
Better to dance with ten who won't remember her name
Than to be asked by one who can't forget it.
Little boy;
You made me feel guilt that day
Which never fully went away
You told the world you hated me
And that's when I began to see
How much it must have hurt
To have dressed up in your first clean shirt
And hope like hell she'd understand
The things you felt, and take your hand
But damn you little boy I never had a chance
You couldn't see I wasn't ready
For what you monsters call romance.
Little boy;
You never looked at me the same
As though you didn't know my name
And in the end you made me hate myself for hurting you
But no one ever stopped to tell me what I ought to do.
Little boy;
Maybe someday you'll walk my way
And listen to the song I play
And if you're still fond of passing notes
Perhaps we'll shed our children's coats
And talk an hour or two of what's become of us and why
That finally we might say hello, forgive, and say goodbye.

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Emilie Autumn Liddell (born on September 22, 1979), better known by her stage name Emilie Autumn, is an American singer-songwriter, poet, and violinist. Autumn draws influence for her music—the style of which she has alternatively labeled as "Victoriandustrial" and glam rock—from plays, novels, and history, particularly the Victorian era. Performing with her all-female backing band The Bloody Crumpets, Autumn incorporates elements of classical music, cabaret, electronica, and glam rock with theatrics, and burlesque.

Growing up in Malibu, California, she began learning the violin at the age of four and left regular school five years later with the goal of becoming a world-class violinist; she practiced eight or nine hours a day and read a wide range of literature. Progressing to writing her own music, she studied under various teachers and went to Indiana University, which she left over issues regarding the relationship between classical music and the appearance of the performer. Through her own independent label Traitor Records, Autumn debuted with her classical album On a Day: Music for Violin & Continuo, followed by the release in 2003 of her album Enchant.

She appeared in singer Courtney Love's backing band on her 2004 America's Sweetheart tour and returned to Europe. She released the 2006 album Opheliac with the German label Trisol Music Group. In 2007, she released Laced/Unlaced; the re-release of On a Day... appeared as Laced with songs on the electric violin as Unlaced. She later left Trisol to join New York-based The End Records in 2009 and release Opheliac in the United States, where previously it had only been available as an import. Currently she is on tour to promote her newest album Fight Like A Girl. She played the role of Painted Doll in Darren Lynn Bousman's 2012 film The Devil's Carnival.
