|
Brown hair in a bird's nest, a pile of teeth under a tree |
|
The frayed sleeves of a poorly tailored jacket |
|
Another wasted night searching for life |
|
Digging up graves 'cause I've got something to say to the dead and buried |
|
You know how my mind, it drifts |
|
A small boat lost at sea, callow and rudderless to say the least |
|
I swear on my mother's gravy that I didn't lie to you |
|
I was only as usual confused |
|
It was wrong of me to curse your family's name |
|
And your faith and an answering machine |
|
That I knew it didn't know how to use |
|
For how long must I lie awake? |
|
For how many long nights shall I keep digging up graves? |
|
I swear on my mother's gravy that I didn't lie to you |
|
I just didn't tell the truth |
