lyrics

Seven corners, seven cobwebs
Six are vacant. One is full
But no spiders. Just dead bugs
Such a waste of tiny life

Paint is cracking. White on green
Every day a little more
Walls reveal the years gone by
Walls that travel back in time

Kitchen clock is stuck at midday
'Cause the batteries are dead
But it doesn't even matter
Time feels like that anyway

Hear the faucet drip, ticking out the days
Wiping off the dead skin from every shelf
Watch the mirror show someone else's face
Yell and lose your voice talking to yourself

Dare not look into the cupboard
There's a chip on every plate
And a colony of red ants
Have reclaimed the bathroom grate

Hear the faucet drip, ticking out the days
Wiping off the dead skin from every shelf
Watch the mirror show someone else's face
Cry and lose your voice yelling at yourself

And I swear that when I close my eyes
I can hear every family portraits fight
But I'm grateful, because otherwise
It would all be awfully quiet

It's the rest of your life
So it shouldn't take long
Just a taste of the knife
Then the blood on your tongue
