lyrics

the Departed Grates

you know the sound it makes
the baby rattle breaks
why you gotta go and spit in my eye
got one life to live
your fractions got to give
you've got to try to tell a convincing lie -

yea! yeah!
ahuh
! nah uh

I know the voice inside your head
coz some nights I swear I hear it too
you leave a trail of bread-crumbs to find me
as for you I'll make you
come!
yeah

ahuh
! nah uh

Even if you tried
the children'll just deny
You are the reason I wrote this fucking song
you know the sound it make
the church shutters breaks
I'm feeling like I just been kicked in the eye
Dear john, don't be cold
Purple Girl meets the Green Boy!
you could have had me to always keep you warm!!
please don't be afraid! you still got what it takes!
even modest people kick it and die.
oh oh oh!
