If you take another photograph
Of me upon the cenotaph
Please don't tell me no
Cause I turned off the phone
I waited by your house again
And slept upon the ocean bed
I'm an empty tomb
A sunset waterloo
Such a patient yet reductive mind
Can make yourself read further into why
I wanna go away for a while
I wanna go away for a while
I'm gonna pull the cape over my face all night
I saw you in the photograph
Then dropped it in a running bath
I tumbled down the road
Plowed all through the snow
F*cked my crooked spine all over again
Tripped over a brick then stubbed my toe on a leaky pen
Then the ink sprayed directly in my eyes
And my face swelled up to a stupid size
I slept under the Tasman Sea
Where the oceans meet at Cape Reinga
Don't wait for me
Capsized at sea
Onomatopoeic
You taste like metal
Throw out the key
Ha
Ha
You're gonna go away for a while
You're gonna go away for a while
I'm gonna put the cape over your face and cry
