Oh my god, what a nightmare that we find ourselves in, that we find ourselves in Your head spins like a prize wheel while I'm giving goosebumps to a woman wearing pumps She walks down to the basement with her hair tied into a bow with a knot in the back, with a knot in the back Oh, Jessey, would you come over please? Just to sing me to sleep, just to sing me to sleep We walked down to the corner store just to buy us some drinks, just to buy us some drinks Oh, my god what a night it's been

Oh Jessey, can you hear me? Can you hear me? You look like you just saw a ghost Oh, Jessey, can you hear me? Can you hear me? You look like you just saw a ghost They call come to see your glow and thank god for all the pleasures that we know in our lives While you washed your hands in the bathroom sink I was drifting off All the years are starting to weigh me down Oh Jessey, can you hear me? Can you hear me? You look like you just saw a ghost Oh, Jessey, can you hear me? Am I getting through? You look like you just saw a ghost Oh, darling, can you hear me? Can you hear me? (You were washing dishes) You look like you just saw a ghost (In the kitchen sink) Oh darling, can you hear me? Can you hear me? (I was drawing pictures) You look like you just saw a ghost (Oh my god, I'm starting to fall for you)

Now, somewhere in the back of my head there's a man with a gun and a pack of cigarettes and he tells me not to cry Says, it'll be alright Now all the men are calling out my name but I don't have the time or patience for their confusing auras You're all giving me a migraine Can we sit and talk about it for a while? Found you in the dark sitting with your halo wrapped around your neck Please don't hesitate to tell me I don't have a chance We were watching pictures go up in the sky Never had a feeling like this Found you in the dark sitting with your halo wrapped around your neck Please don't hesitate to tell me You're not acting like the person that I used to know Can we sit and talk about it for a while? Now, someone else is calling out your name but you're too scared to ask why so you just take a long walk and think about your life Then you buy yourself a knife Now, all the angels calling out your name are just the same as all the devils that you used to turn your back on when you had no will to live Can you give yourself a rest? Can we sit and talk about it for a while? Found you in the dark sitting nearly hollow wrapped up in a cloak Please don't hesitate to tell me I don't have a chance you were just as strong I'm not gonna let myself be controlled anymore Found you in the dark sitting with your halo wrapped around your neck Please don't hesitate to tell me Can we give ourselves a rest? Can we just go on and leave it for a while? Now, somewhere just behind my head there's a man with a gun and a pack of cigarettes and he tells me not to cry Says, it'll be alright

Can we go home? I don't like the way you've been talking to me tonight Jessey, can we go home? I don't like the way you've been talking to me tonight Through the stained glass of isolation all of you look like broken dolls Now I feel so alone You've been looking at me like I'm someone that you don't know But Jessey, it's me It's the girl that you put all your thoughts and dreams into (Just give me a sign)

Fire Tongs 02:30
I was just finding out I would have to have all of my teeth pulled So I walked back into the bedroom where my lover laid in bed still He stands up, walks across the room picks up the fire tongs At least somebody's having a good time, but I'm not the one for you Angel came down from heaven and told me Someone you love is messing around with you Fa-la-la-la, come down to the river All of your friends are waiting here just for you Angel came down from heaven and told me Someone you love is messing around with you Fa-la-la-la, come down to the river All of your friends are waiting here just for you I was just finding out I would have to have all of my teeth pulled So I walked back into the bedroom where my lover used to lay still He sits down, pulls out a flask of whiskey and says listen, now If somebody's courting a ghost, then you have to abandon them Angel came down from heaven and told me Someone you love is messing around with you Fa-la-la-la, come down to the river All of your friends are waiting here just for you
