Smashing Pumpkins: "To Sheila"



"Twilight fades 
Through blistered avalon 
The sky's cruel torch 
On aching autobahn 
Into the uncertain divine 
We scream into the last divide 

You make me real 
You make me real 
Strong as i feel 
You make me real 

Sheila rides on crashing nightingale 
Intake eyes leave passing vapor trails 
With blushing brilliance alive 
Because it's time to arrive 

You make me real 
You make me real 
Strong as i feel 
You make me real 

Lately I just can't seem to believe 
Discard my friends to change the scenery 
It meant the world to hold a bruising faith 
But now it's just a matter of grace 

A summer storm graces all of me 
Highway warm sing silent poetry 
I could bring you the light 
And take you home into the night 


You make me real 
Lately I just can't seem to believe 
You make me real 
Discard my friends to change the scenery 
Strong as i feel 
It meant the world to hold a bruising faith 
You make me real 
But now it's just a matter of grace"
