Absentee

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Take from my heart a splinter Carrying wood for the coming winter Spat out in the bag There all the words Leave me begat Part of me Absentee [Verse 2] Take from the people their dead river Take from the body its shiver I have something for you I'll give you a clue It's shaped like a shoe Part of me Absentee [Bridge] As before I knew As before you want to Ain't it true? [Verse 3] Walking on a country road late last night I passed a stranger in the moonlight I turned around to see where he did flee But there was just me, returned a deep Absentee Part of me Absentee Part of me Absentee
