Turn the corner a thousand times,
Clockwork avenue leading outside
Smell of coriander leading down the hall.
Nina Simone on the radio
Now the front door open in the midnight february
Rubber band on the door knob means she's cryin' again.
Who are you talking to in that room by yourself?
Could you please let them out or
Open up and let me back in?
Cause the ghost of your laughter
rattles chains in the night.
And the hands that used to
warm me have turned to knives.
Though I ain't the one who cut you
But you leave me here to bleed
When you sever, when you sever.
What are you going to do now
when the sandman comes?
Keep rockin' in your moccasins or
Pray with your eyes open.
Before you hit the blues and
Cry yourself to sleep,
Do me a favor and line up your demons
And I'll fight everything.
Cause the ghost of your laughter
rattles chains in the night
And the hands that used to warm me
have turned to knives.
Though I ain't the one that cut you
But you leave me here to bleed
When you sever, when you sever.
And don't you know the sky ain't fallin', don't you?
Don't you know if it was I'd catch it for you?
Don't you know if I was going to leave by now
I would have done so long ago.
I'm the one still waiting here at home.
Cause the ghost of your laughter
rattles chains in the night.
And the hands that used to warm me
have turned to knives.
Though I ain't the one that cut you
But you leave me here to bleed
When you sever, when you sever.
Cause the ghost of your laughter
Rattles chains in my life
And the hands that used to warm me
are cold as a knife.
Though I ain't the one that cut you
But you leave me here to bleed
When you sever, when you sever.
Oh, you sever.
