Yesterday's Cloud

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

There's a man in my suitcase, a woman in your clothes

Skeletons inside us that dance on hot coals

Cannibals are outside following our trail

All our information comes from junk mail

Don't leave it among us, don't let it loose in the crowd

Don't let it reign over us, cos that was yesterday's cloud

Still hanging over us

There's an elephant of memory, a monkey on a back

A poisonous whirlpool, swirling and black

I know we have tasted the fobidden ugly fruit

Get it out of our system rip it by the root

Don't leave it among us, don't let it loose in the crowd

Don't let it reign over us, cos that was yesterday's cloud

Still hanging over us

The rain came out of nowhere, a bad flashback

Someone hit the switch and the sky turned black

Why is this happening, why won't it go away?

If this is a game I don't wann play

Don't leave it among us, don't let it loose in the crowd

Don't let it reign over us, cos that was yesterday's cloud

Still hanging over us
