Books I've Read Lyrics

fall down from the holes in the ceiling
count the cracks in the wall as it's peeling
peeling away, from you, from me
your skin is becoming so distant
distant like the books that ive read
distant like the pages that ive torn from them
so i close my eyes so that i can't see it
cause i heard if you dont see it, then maybe you dont have to belive it
no no, you don't have to belive it

and the first rule to making yourself better is making yourself feel younger,
putting yourself in your place, realizing all your mistakes
so we went and drove around the town, looking for bystander or just a person to witness the
execution and make sure that they're all dead
because my prophecy for everything is if you didnt really see it, then it never really happened
and that's the way i look at you and me

you mother, she'll be fine
her sickness, it will heal in time
you can cross your name right off her will this time
because she'd leave you nothing but old magazines and a suitcase filled with things you cant pronounce
things you never need
you'll wear his best shirt, his best necktie, or his best suit
the one he wore to that interview
and got himself that steady job

so we went and drove around the town, looking for bystander or just a person to witness the
execution and make sure that they're all dead
because my prophecy for everything is if you didnt really see it, then it never really happened
and that's the way i look at you and me

well if you're feeling lost then join the crowd
it's filled with idiots and ones who have lost all faith in life
ones who have lost all faith in love
we all go back to one
we all go back to nothing
hey look blue car, we'll drive right into me

so we went and drove around the town, looking for bystander or just a person to witness the
execution and make sure that they're all dead
because my prophecy for everything is if you didnt really see it, then it never really happened
and that's the way i look at you and me

fall down from the holes in the ceiling
count the cracks in the wall as it's peeling
peeling away, from you, from me, from you, from me
