Grey Lining |
This house is so clean; |
Glass tables spread with new magazines |
Can I stay for a week? |
You can kick me out when I break something |
From the guest room I see |
Your garden stretch out, it’s like oceans of green |
The maid calls me for tea |
And the tiles depict Mediterranean scenes |
And it’s all been added up |
Laid so a life can lean on it |
So please don’t bring that up |
No one wants to hear that shit |
Every night in my dreams |
I lift glass figurines from a shelf in the hall |
Each delicate piece |
When I pick it up it just can’t help but fall |
I can’t hold anything |
All machines, clothes and cars they just crumble and break |
When they touch my hand |
'Cause I feel like I’m holding the hand that made them that way |
But this house is beautiful |
You could live long lives in it |
Please don’t be so dutiful |
No one wants to hear that shit |
