Lyrics

[00:14.50] Your mother hung herself in the National Theater
[00:19.26] When she was four months pregnant with your sister
[00:24.29] Who would have been thirteen years old today
[00:30.21] Does that make you feel any less alone in the world?
[00:35.68] Your dad, I'm sure, he tried his best
[00:40.15] He thought you'd be better off living with your grandmother
[00:45.10] He didn't realize that she had already given up
[00:51.26] Baby, your family, they are just losers
[00:56.79] I've become such a wolf around you
[01:01.88] My thoughts go dark and dull, out of focus
[01:07.26] Have no peace in my mind
[01:11.58] Because you
[01:17.00] You've touched me
[01:43.72] The screech owls are going insane outside my house
[01:49.09] It is the season for trouble and self destruction
[01:54.25] All of my friends, they are falling apart
[01:59.53] But not me, I'm in control
[02:05.02] Remember the exquisite corpse that we created together
[02:09.40] We laughed at the time, it seemed so impenetrable
[02:14.40] But reading it now I think I understand
[02:20.48] What it is that we are trying to steal from each other
[02:25.95] I've become such a wolf around you
[02:31.17] My thoughts go dark and dull, out of focus
[02:36.39] Have no peace in my mind
[02:40.74] Because you
[02:46.21] You've touched me
