[00:00.00]
[00:08.42]In the middle of the night I was sleeping sitting up
[00:12.79]When a doctor came to tell me
[00:15.18]"Enough is Enough"
[00:17.01]He brought me out into the hall
[00:19.00]I could have sworn it was haunted
[00:21.75]And told me something that I didn't know
[00:24.61]That I wanted to hear:
[00:26.93]That there was nothing that I could do to save you
[00:30.36]The choirs gonna sing and this sing is gonna kill you
[00:35.06]Something in my throat made my next words shake
[00:38.92]And something in the wires made the light bulbs break
[00:43.45]There was glass inside my feet
[00:45.19]And raining down from the ceiling
[00:47.73]It opened up the scars that had just finished healing
[00:52.07]It tore apart the canyon running down your femur
[00:56.45]I thought that it was beautiful
[00:58.60]It made me a believer
[01:00.84]And as it opened I could hear you howling from your room
[01:04.92]But I hid out in the hall until the hurricane blew
[01:09.56]When I reappeared and tried to give you something for the pain
[01:13.48]You came to hating me again, and just sang your refrain:
[01:18.65]You had a new dream
[01:20.44]It was more like a nightmare
[01:22.89]You were just a little kid
[01:24.62]And they cut your hair
[01:26.94]Then they stuck you in machines
[01:29.13]You came so close to dying
[01:32.06]They should have listened
[01:33.45]They thought that you were lying
[01:36.05]Daddy was an asshole, he ****** you up
[01:40.03]Build the gears in your head
[01:41.96]Now he greases them up
[01:44.31]And no one paid attention when you just stopped eating
[01:49.10]"Eighty seven pounds!"
[01:50.89]And this all bears repeating
[01:53.68]
[02:28.19]Tell me when you think that we became so unhappy
[02:32.87]Wearing silver rings with nobody clapping
[02:36.45]When we moved here together we were so disappointed
[02:41.86]Sleeping out of tune with our dreams disjointed
[02:45.42]It killed me to see you getting always rejected
[02:49.75]But I didn't mind the things you threw
[02:51.89]The phones I deflected
[02:54.04]I didn't mind you blaming me for your mistakes
[02:58.31]I just held you in the door frame
[03:00.56]Through all of the earthquakes
[03:02.80]But you packed up your clothes in that bag every night
[03:07.38]And I would try to grab your ankles
[03:09.45]What a pitiful sight
[03:11.46]But after over a year I stopped trying to stop you
[03:16.21]From stomping out that door
[03:18.20]Coming back like you always do
[03:20.33]Well no one's gonna fix it for us
[03:23.16]No one can
[03:24.59]You say that, 'No one's gonna listen,
[03:26.42]And no one understands.'
[03:28.89]So there's no open doors
[03:31.02]And there's no way to get through
[03:33.16]There's no other witnesses
[03:36.12]Just us two
[03:38.52]There's two people living in one small room
[03:42.30]From your two half-families tearing at you
[03:47.14]Two ways to tell the story no one worries
[03:51.43]Two silver rings on our fingers in a hurry
[03:55.76]Two people talking inside your brain
[03:59.93]Two people believing that I'm the one to blame
[04:04.25]Two different voices coming out of your mouth
[04:08.48]While I'm too cold to care and too sick to shout
[04:13.28]You had a new dream
[04:14.97]It was more like a nightmare
[04:17.58]You were just a little kid
[04:19.20]And they cut your hair
[04:21.45]Then they stuck you in machines
[04:23.71]You came so close to dying
[04:26.68]They should have listened
[04:28.07]They thought that you were lying
[04:30.72]Daddy was an asshole, he ****** you up
[04:34.55]Build the gears in your head
[04:36.58]Now he greases them up
[04:38.88]And no one paid attention when you just stopped eating
[04:43.84]"Eighty seven pounds!"
[04:45.48]And this all bears repeating
