DISAPPEAR
I've been thinking maybe I could build a spaceship
With rusted tin and old discarded wood
I'd navigate with string
And bent shower curtain rings
That rattle on the fuselage. Then maybe I could
CHORUS: Disappear.
I wish they'd offer me witness protection
Though I have not seen evidence of crime
Unless you count the part
Where you conspired against my heart
Though that's something that I didn't know at the time.
REPEAT CHORUS
There're too few questions I can answer
But they keep asking all the same
No revelation dawning
Beyond this thirst, this longing
To just go back from whence I came.
Is there the slimmest chance that there's a tunnel
Dug with cans and cutlery and keys
No more ma lingering
I'd crawl under everything
And hide inside the earth until decay and disease
REPEAT CHORUS
