Chauchat Eyelash Lyrics

Yes I understand you know a lot more than I do
Like a teacher you are older
You have asked me not to speak out loud
So for the third time just today they told me to stop
making noise
This house shakes if an eyelash falls
Just imagine what a heartbeat does

Somewhere along the way I lost the will to be kind
Half the truth fell down the staircase
The rest is still inside my suitcase
But the only time her hands touched mine was to staple
me to the bed
She thinks I’m sick like you do
I swear to god it’s just bronchitis

I had a dream last time I was shot to death With part of my brain lying in the front seat
Help me find the latent content
Do I really want to lose my mind in a car?

And I can hear your words as you answer me
And reduce it all to a sarcastic call
You waited for me, I waited longer for the absence
But have you ever woken up inside a room
And tried to describe the gloom she cast
It covers the heating ducts and the window frames you
thought would keep her out

Sparrow on a broken branch still senses fear
Your Muppet blanket won’t protect you
I stopped making sense
