So I don't quite get this one, but the way I see it (as T herself has said her songs are open for interp, that they might mean one thing for her and another for the listeners)...I can relate to this one.

Tori Amos
Siren


and you know you’re gonna lie to you
in your own way
you know you’re gonna lie to you
in your own way

Know
know too well
know the chill
know she breaks
my Siren

NEVER was one for a prissy girl
coquette
Call in for an ambulance
Reach high
doesn’t mean SHE’S holy
just means
She’s got a Cellular handy
almost brave
almost pregnant
almost in love
"VANILLA"

and you know you’re gonna lie to you
in your own way

and you don’t need the light on
to guide you through the Southern lands, go, said, go, yes…

I'm reading this right now. Now, you all know I am VERY not religious. But I've always been interested in Mary Magdalene, and this book (so far) does a really great job of showing her. I really like how, thus far, Ms. Traylor has portrayed Mary's 'demons' as being more a form of PTSD. Yeah, I know it's going to probably get really preachy shortly, but I can forgive that.
