Throwing Muses

Throwing Muses is an alternative rock band formed in 1981 in Newport, Rhode Island, that toured and recorded extensively until 1997, when its members began concentrating more on other projects. The group was originally fronted by two lead singers, Kristin Hersh and Tanya Donelly, who both wrote the group's songs. Throwing Muses are known for performing music with shifting tempos, creative chord progressions, unorthodox song structures, and surreal lyrics. The group was set apart from other contemporary acts by Hersh's stark, candid writing style; Donelly's pop stylings and vocal harmonies; and David Narcizo's unusual drumming techniques eschewing use of cymbals.

It's just the lack
Of time I keep
Reaching out, lashing out 

It's just the lines
Run down the walls
I can't believe they never fall
The walls never leave
And the walls begin to scream 

Ah
And my toes against the wall
I stare ahead
The door inside the wall
Your face inside the door
You crawl across the room 

The picture never moves
My books are very still
You slide to my feet
You slide across the floor 

I
Throw your head across the ice
I
Throw my head through a window
Crash
Like poetry 

It's four o'clock, I'm waiting
Your face appears
I keep forgetting your name
While I'm writing this, you
You crash through the wall
You fall off the floor 

I
Slide your head across the ice
I
Throw my hands through the window
Crash
Like gods

A room
Full of delicate cutters
All sitting down, the room has many doors
All but one of them are closed
She goes around
(Remember)
Opening the doors 

This has another ending
Full of innocent children
One of them are closed 

She goes around
This has another ending
(Remember the room)
Full of delicate cutters
Opening the doors
