Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Now her paints are dry
And I looked outside
At the corner boys
Yeah
Hey, oh, where did you go?
I don't know
[Verse 2]
I went to see your pictures
I spread them across the floor
So this is where they are shown
They're probably saying to you
If you keep it up, you'll be born
[Verse 3]
But you won't ever listen
I'll bet
[Verse 4]
Burnt, dying grass
Scorched by the sun
The buildings remain
[Verse 5]
We will beat them all to dust
I'll bet
[Verse 6]
Pulled from her headless shell
That blinked on and off, hotel
Now the nameless dwell
[Verse 7]
They hold your key and turn your knob
I'll bet
[Verse 8]
Will you say hello to my mom?
Will you pay a visit to her?
She was an artist, just as you were
I'd have introduced you to her
[Verse 9]
She would take me out on Sundays
We'd go laughing through the garbage
She repaired legs like a doctor
On the kitchen chairs we sat on
[Verse 10]
She was unhappy, just as you were
Unhappy, just as you were
Unhappy, just as you were
Unhappy, just as you were
