lyrics

me and my neighbor both have knives under our pillows
me in a fog I see his shadow in my window
why is he moving why is he moving so slowly
why is he moving why is he moving so slowly
screaming in silence but never knowing if he heard me
I'm left believing he was the widower of "wait here"
maybe he couldn't he couldn't see me through the light of
my television my figure hidden in the glow of

maybe this time I will be myself

when we were strangers he hovered in forgotten corners
waiting for light to shift and fall on lovers at the altar
now I don't even now I don't even think to wonder
was it the mother's sin that made a murderer of her son
me and my neighbor both have knives under our pillows
me in the dark I strike a match and wait for answers
they never tell you they never tell you that the truth is
there's no forever only a lie for you to wait on

maybe this time I will be myself
