She's made of chalk

a butterfly is in your hair

reminding us it is that time of year

a cool shade and a spot in the sun

a cold struggle

but the tiresome brawl is won

how could you talk about suicide

how could you possibly see it as right

the long road through a deep ravine

is leading out into the sun beams.

[chorus]

let's go out tonight

you don't need to be frightened

don't say it isn't right

move on, jump in, fall out.

the old smoke is coughed away

a new breeze is blowing in our way

tough luck, you've got to change

for such a long long fall

you've been out of range.

look in the mirror, there's still good news

don't need the make up

you won't look used

can't wake the dead up

no what you need

is just a bar and some debauchery.

[chorus]

let's go out tonight

you don't need to be frightened

don't say it isn't right

move on, jump in, fall out.

I passed the church on my morning walk

crossed my mind she's made of chalk

and more white than the holy saints

but not quite immune to this black malaise

I grabbed a smile off the midday sky

got me thinking, do you wanna know why

it's all there and it's right outside

come on kick the door and go face the light.

[chorus]

let's go out tonight

you don't need to be frightened

don't say it isn't right

move on, jump in, fall out.
