lyrics

THAT MORNING SOMEONE CAME ACROSS HIS BROKEN BODY CAUGHT
IN SOME BRUSH NEAR THE BANK OF THE RIVER
QUICKLY THEN THE NEWS WAS SPREADING AROUND AND SOON
HIS MOTHER WAS SEEN CROSSING IN CRY THE MAIN STREET OF THE TOWN
WHILE THE RAIN WAS FALLING COLD ON HER BLUE RAGGED GOWN

THEY BROUGHT HIM TO THE MORGUE
THEN OPENED UP HIS LUNGS AND HIS GUTS
IN THE STOMACH WHAT THEY FOUND
WAS A PHIAL WITH A NOTE AND THE WORDS HE HAD SCRAWLED
INSIDE ALREADY SPREAD AROUND THE TOWN

“I CAN ONLY SEE AMONG THE STRIPES
OF RAIN THE STRINGS THAT MAKE OF MY SADNESS
A JUMPING JACK”

FROM HERE I CAN SEE THE GRIEF THEY FAKE
AND EVERY TRICK BEHIND THEIR TEARS

THE DAY AFTER THIS WHEN THEY LAID IN THEIR SHEETS
THE PEOPLE OF THE TOWN COULD HEAR THE BRAND NEW TUNE
MICKAEL DID COMPOSE AND WAS HOWLING ON WORDS
EVERYONE ALREADY KNEW FOR THEY HAD SPREAD AROUND THE TOWN

“I CAN ONLY SEE AMONG THE STRIPES
OF RAIN THE STRINGS THAT MAKE OF MY SADNESS
A JUMPING JACK”

FROM HERE I CAN SEE THE GRIEF THEY FAKE
AND EVERY STRING THAT HIDE THEIR TEARS

ALL THE SONGS COULD NOT CONSOLE THE ONE THAT CAN ONLY SEE
THE TRICKS NO NOTHING CAN CONSOLE THE ONE THAT CAN ONLY SEE
THESE AWFUL STRINGS
FOR TO HIM
EVERYTHING IS JUST TOO REAL

WHEN I WENT OUT THE SUN WAS TOO BRIGHT
I WAS LOOKING FOR A SOUL BUT ALL I FOUND WAS FACTS
I SAW THAT DOG SHITTING ON THE BRIDGE AND WHAT I READ IN HIS EYES
WAS WEAKNESS AND SHAME SO I JUMPED
