lyrics

people are ugly in their ways
leaving things in the wrong place
i'd like to re-write the curriculum
in such a hurry to get things down

close your eyes, draw the blinds
home is a dead weight that keeps you down
and everything you love fails you somehow

such a bright spark in my world
i've taken to stealing your words
a chain of emails from your estate
how i wish i were there with you now
as inspiration draws to an end
you've truly become your own death
when you're gone you quickly forget
when you're gone you're quickly forgotten as well

close your eyes, draw the blinds
home is a dead weight that keeps you down
and everything you love fails you somehow
