When the Curious Girl Realizes She Is Under Glass (Companion Version)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Tomorrow when I wake up I'm finding my brother And making him take me back down to the water To the lake where we sailed and laughed with our father I will not desert him, I will not desert him [Chorus] No matter how I may wish for a coffin so clean Or these trees to undress all their leaves onto me I put my face in the dirt, then finally I see The sky that has been avoiding me [Verse 2] I started this letter, I'm gonna send it to Ruba It'll be blessed by her eyes on the gulf coast of Florida With her feet in the sand and one hand on her swimsuit She'll recite the prayer of my pen Saying, "Time take us forward, relieve me this longing They can land that plane on my heart, I don't care Just give me November, the warmth of your whisper In the freezing darkness of my room" [Chorus] But no matter what I would do in an attempt to replace All these pills that I take to balance my brain I've seen that curious girl with the look on her face So surprised, she stares out from her display case
