The Nest

歌詞

Everything that happened here Cannot happen when you're dead She safely said Worry when you wake tonight Is it all in your head? So you want to run, deny No time to sit and rest Or re-address All that comes to you When you're picturing the nest And he never understands That the photo in the drawer Is all you're looking for Blue to grey, then back again Watch the fading paper wall Scratching at the window glass Trees along the ledge Are they in your head? Creepers beat-beat-beat tonight Picturing the nest The sight at sixteen Of the son she never had Once she had a dream Of the ones she'll never have Your ending Your ending Your ending Your ending You're only half a person now So fold over what is left To be addressed What you want when you wake tonight Is it all in your head? So you turn over, lie Cradling this perfect mess This home-made dress You've seen what comes to those Who put a picture in the nest The sight at sixteen Of the one she'll never have Once she had a dream Of the son she'll never have Your ending Your ending Your ending Your ending The sight at sixteen Of the ones she'll never have Once she had a dream Of the son she'll never have Your ending Your ending Your ending Your ending Whoa-oh-oh Ahh...
