For Only Lyrics
An image from a long, long time ago
Is haunting me, it plays itself
With picture perfect clarity
A certain walk, a certain talk
Forever twenty-three
For only me to see
I watch it like a movie
The details so consume me
What's real will surface when it's gone
(And then it's gone)
By now you've heard the news
What is there left to do
I watch it like a movie
The details so consume me
What's real will surface when it's gone
(and then it's gone)
Your face looks so familiar
Unwashed and quite peculiar
No I can't say that I recall
I guess it's gone
Is haunting me, it plays itself
With picture perfect clarity
A certain walk, a certain talk
Forever twenty-three
For only me to see
The details so consume me
What's real will surface when it's gone
(And then it's gone)
What is there left to do
The details so consume me
What's real will surface when it's gone
(and then it's gone)
Unwashed and quite peculiar
No I can't say that I recall
I guess it's gone

I always felt like the lyrics to this song had to do with Tobi's past relationship with Kurt Cobain and his subsequent death. I think that the "forever twenty three" line was the age at which he was when they dated. Maybe... maybe not.
sigh. bikini kill is the best.
