My mother taught me to smile at every passerby
There's trouble in the words that used to slide...

The sound of cold skin hits a shiny heart
It always seems summer nights take longer to get...

She writes her name on the wall in eyeliner
She's a bittersweet mirror slave liar...

It's a long way down but I think we can make it...
I mean, we've always been wondering about the...

It all started last May
When the leaves turned gray...

You said they had no right to know anything
And you said you told them absolutely nothing...

In this very air that we breathe
These are the voices that are telling us to leave...

Oh the worst it over and we're all okay
I prayed for souls and we're here today...
