It's been a long night

And I've tired out my knees down to the bone

And my heart of stone

I should feel lucky but I don't

Sometimes I'm lonely

When I'm stuck here on this throne

As the children groan

They should feel lucky but they don't

Everybody wants

They want they want they want...

In a heartbeat they're gone

Slipped into the night

And its black as coal

We should feel lucky but we don't

Everybody wants

They want they want they want...

It's cold as fuck

Frosted feet

Cut my hand

Raking leaves

The chappedest lips

The driest eyes

Coldest breeze

Shut off the taps

For the deep freeze

Minus one

Hundred degrees

String up the lights

In the backyard

It's Father-Son

The kitchen's warm

Our stomachs speak

My Mother's meals

Our hearts are so cold

But not because we want it all

And not because we need it

It's because we don't know how

It's got me wanting like Veruca
