Picked you out
Dropped you off
Brought you in our house
Dressed you up
Took photographs
Stood around with open mouths
Starved you of your water
Till the needles piled around
Sweeping up
The needle dust
By the light of the TV
The humor of the metaphor
Isn't lost on me
All the water in the world
And I can't force myself to want a drink
Tell me what is missing in my mind
I feel the problem is essential
Its memory
Is blackening my mind
I'm taking everything back
Evergreen
Twist to the right
Spray the glass
Swirl the wet around
We do our best thinking while
We're working in this house
All the world is always straining
I can't settle till it's out
Tell me what is missing in my mind
I feel the problem is essential
Its memory
Is blackening my mind
I'm taking everything back
Evergreen
Tell me what is written in your eyes
I feel the problem is essential
My enemy
Is keeping me alive
I'm taking everything back
Evergreen
