Lyrics
An Empty Corner
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.
Eight tiny lines of cocaine
Left on a copy machine
In an empty corner of a dream
My sleep could not complete
There are sirens in the birds
And you and I are too far apart
And my eyes need a shave
What else can go wrong?
Now that I'm not longed for
Wild life seems wrong
Won't care
Won't stare
You've got family out there
The silver black boot
That cracked my front tooth
Is a new kind of truth
I'm getting used to
Come back lonely
How sad if only
I don't believe you don't care
You've got family out there
Where the power lines are down
Whipping sparks around
Like angels touching down
I see you there
How sad
If only
Don't believe you don't care
You've got family out there
You've got family out there
