Empty bottles and summer breezes
Restless feelings and system freezes
The taxi flew from the overpass that night
I watched it happen a thousand times
That incandescent yellow seems
All too familiar to me
Holy Father, all around
In my dreams am I still safe and sound?
A beating drum beneath the street
The music caught between
My teeth are all falling out
Vagueness forms like the back of the hand
There's poignance in the sigh
Listen close, there's the sign
If you had seen my mother's face
When she threw me out the side
And drove the car into the wall
The bus was somehow upside down
So the light spilled up from the ground
It's bitter upkeep to seem so pretty
There's nuance in the tragedy
Endless nights eternalize
A beauty born of closing eyes
Sand collects inside of me
A stained glass portrait forming
If you had seen my teary eyes
When I laid my love to rest
For the 18th time
If you had heard the tolling bell
You'd know why you don't know
How to know me at all
If you had seen my mother's face
When I threw her out the side
Before the car hit the wall
There's ringing in the summer sky
Through the clouds it's just
And here it is, in my eyes
And here it is, in my eyes
In my eyes
In my eyes
In my eyes
