I was in town for a death in the family You never left You started a story that you could not finish And I waited and I waited
♪ While we speak, our ghosts are speaking to each other Between the walls, a satellite It's only funny when you're not afraid of everything ♪ Cadillac hope, capitalism killed by lower gods An eyelash, a present joy You can't give me what's already mine ♪ We are the hangman and the undertaker We are the embracers and we are the embrace We are a silent movie sweetheart with a swollen tongue And I'm waiting, and I'm waiting ♪ While we speak, our self-made matter A wine stained mask, a reptile, a cigarette, attention slides away It's only funny when you're not afraid of everything ♪ Cadillac hope, capitalism killed by an eyelash A present joy, a present joy You can't give me what's already mine You can't give me what's already mine I was in town for a death in the family You never left You started a story that you could not finish And I waited and I waited
