Evergreen

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Picked you out Dropped you off Brought you in Our house Dressed you up Took photographs Stood around With open mouths Starved you of your water Till the needles piled around Sweeping up The needle dust By the light of the TV The humor of The metaphor Isn't lost on me All the water in the world And I can't force myself to want a drink [Chorus] Tell me what's missing in my mind I fear the problem is essential Its memory Is blackening my mind I'm taking everything back Evergreen [Verse 2] Twist the rag Spray the glass Swirl the wet around We do our Best thinking while We're working in this house All the world is always staining I can't settle till it's out [Chorus] Tell me what's missing in my mind I fear the problem is essential Its memory Is blackening my mind I'm taking everything back Evergreen Tell me what is written in your eyes I fear the problem is essential My enemy Is keeping me alive I'm taking everything back Evergreen Evergreen Evergreen Evergreen
