| Every day when I come home
|
| I expect to find you gone
|
| A folded message by the phone
|
| The television left switched on
|
| With every single channel showing
|
| Slow-mo pictures of you going
|
| My legs would give way under me
|
| In front of our old red settee
|
| Your folded note unfolding me
|
| I’d hit my head on the TV
|
| Where every channel kept repeating
|
| Slow-mo pictures of you leaving
|
| I’ve got a little something for ya
|
| P-P-P-Paranoia
|
| Like a poor man’s Howard Hughes
|
| I’d stop wearing socks and shoes
|
| Only touch things with tissues
|
| Looking for you on the news
|
| In every piece of war reporting
|
| Through the door I’d see you walking
|
| I’d become preoccupied
|
| With people I don’t know who’ve died
|
| Like one of those unusuals
|
| Who go to strangers' funerals
|
| In every single TV death
|
| I’d see the reason why you left
|
| Oh God, what would I do
|
| My life would fall apart without you
|
| I don’t see what you see
|
| In a stupid loser like me
|
| And every day when I come home
|
| I expect to find you gone
|
| I’ve got a little something for ya
|
| P-P-P-Paranoia |
