Band's Comments		Lyrics
Billy: "Of all the b-sides, this song is probably my biggest regret. I never spent as much time on it as it probably deserved, with this version showing very little improvement from the demo. This one probably should have made the album. I love its feeling and atmosphere, the warbly guitar courtesy of an effect that changes oscillation in ration to signal input (the harder you hit it, the faster it goes). The basic tracks were recorded during the Mellon Collie sessions."		Written by Billy Corgan (listen-wanna just start it?...ready, flood? yeah...1, 2, 3, 4) stay with me, i'll set you free 'cause i can tell you once were pretty rose so sad you've lost your petals and lost the luster of your tattle tales i need a love to help me find my way i need a strength that i cannot betray i need a word to say what i can't say i need a lover, lover i need a lover, lover what are we waiting for? what are we waiting for? time has lost its hold on me hatred sleeps inside my bones in the stillness of cool air all the boys have been left for dead 'cause we know where they fear to tread the beautiful ones, the ones we'll remember the precious ones, our greatest pretenders i need a love to help me find my way i need a strength that i cannot betray i need a word to say what i can't say i need a lover, lover i need a lover, lover and if you lose yourself could you take me, too? could you rest inside the sleep? stay with me, i'll set you free from you
