Cindy Lyrics

Cindy decided to leave
her childhood diary
under the bed
She burned almost everything
except for her wedding ring
Because she threw that in the sea

She hid in her neighbor's yard
and watched as the fire scarred
The house she never could leave
It was the prettiest thing
she thought she had ever seen
A thing in which to believe

Cindy walked down the street,
the smell of the fire so sweet
And she laughed through the smoke
At the end of the block she made one last stop
To make sure she had everything

Awash in the beautiful sound
of the old house burning down
She opened her bag
She could have sworn that she took
her overdue library books
But they were not to be seen

A knowing smile crossed her face
as she remembered the place
Where she left them upstairs
She slowly walked back down the street
And into the burning debris
She couldn't take on any more late fees
