Tell Ma, she's a stonebreaker

Tell her there are no takers

For a heart like this will always be

Chaste at first, then left for me

And though your pallor shows instinct

And all our lives are worth

That stint you did with that man of mine

But lady-luck, her needs divine

'Cos I'm courted by the mourning sun y'know

We shine all the picture palace shows

They used to make you feel so real

But now you go trickling

'Til you steal a moment by yourself

When the people don't come and need your help

When the people don't come with pseudo sights

To tell you how to live your life

Now you can live your life with this life of mine

'Cos I'm feeling guilty and I need some time

To explain the things that I gotta do

'Cos more or less

I owe it all to you

Tell all to the sweet keeper

As you and you're much deeper

In debt it's always nice to be

With the closest like the family

And when you hit on a great line y'know

And when you've opened up your soul

But every girl who's counting the day

Isn't cold - but she just needs to say

'Cos I'm courted by the mourning su y'know

We shine all the picture palace shows

they used to make you feel so real

But now you go trickling

'Til you steal a moment by yourself

When the people don't come and need your help

When the people don't come with pseudo sights

To tell you how to live your life

Now you can live your life with this life of mine

'Cos I'm feeling guilty and I need some time

To explain the things that I gotta do

'Cos more or less

I owe it all to you

And hiding in the lost country

I know I gotta way to go

And though you still fmay find me

At least my garden grows
