Haligh, Haligh, A Lie, Haligh |
| The phone slips from a loose grip |
| Words were missed then, some apology |
| «I didn’t want to tell you this |
| No, it’s just some guy she’s been hanging out with |
| I don’t know, the past couple weeks I guess» |
| Well, thank you and hang up the phone |
| Let the funeral start, hear the casket close |
| Let’s pin split-black ribbon to your overcoat |
| Well, laughter pours from under doors |
| In this house, I don’t understand that sound no more |
| It seems artificial, like a TV set |
| Well, haligh, haligh, a lie, haligh |
| This weight it must be satisfied |
| You offer only one reply |
| You know not what you do |
| But you tear and tear your hair from roots |
| From that same head you have twice removed now |
| A lock of hair you said would prove |
| Our love would never die |
| Well, ha ha ha |
| I remember everything |
| The words we spoke on freezing South Street |
| And all those mornings watching you get ready for school |
| You combed your hair inside that mirror |
| The one you painted blue and glued with jewelry tears |
| Something about those bright colors |
| Would always make you feel better |
| But now we speak with ruined tongues |
| And the words we say aren’t meant for anyone |
| It’s just a mumbled sentence to a passing acquaintance |
| But there was once you |
