-Flicker-
Look at the sky and her blue blue eyes,
wonder how they got so grey
That one wears her heart around he neck
You'll wonder, but you won't say
-Flicker-
Those ribbons and bows circle his neck and hands
and his mommy and his daddy
Tie them through his head
-Flicker-
Her silver charms dangle off her wrist,
count them (1...2...3...)
The first is her mother, the second her lover,
the last is one she hasn't got to meet.
-Flicker-
This boy doesn't miss them,
[Thats a lie]
(He's really {not} better off)
But he keeps his chains on the inside
Because then, he doesn't have a reason to cry.
-Flicker-
And what of me? You?
-Flicker-
Your soul?
-Flicker-
Your fire?
-Flicker-
How long will it take until
-Flicker-
You
-Flicker-
Die
-Flicker-
Out
?
