She's coming home tonight having dealt the final blow

Forgetting half and half of what she doesn't even know

She picks at me for hours with those words she doesn't like

Her freedom is an outrage and her voice is discontent

She screams and takes a fit when we need money for the rent

And fate is never equal to the money when its spent

Do I even pour a laugh when dancing tables are arranged

Shе's lost a contact now

She thinks her family is derangеd

She takes a gloomy photograph

It happens everyday

But talking to her is not so easy when she's aware

That everyone around her sees the truth and doesn't care

And if she modest then it won't be right for me to stay

She's coming home tonight having dealt the final blow

Forgetting half and half of what she doesn't even know

She picks at me for hours with those words she doesn't like

This two tone world and its paper skies

We tear a hole and watch the sun burn holes into our eyes

Our retinas scar and so we learn to stand out in a way

I'm swimming back to shore because the dirigible sank

Roland gave me courage when he said I was a tank

I know you won't believe me if it matters and it may

But she's coming home tonight having dealt the final blow

Forgetting half and half of what she doesn't even know

She picks at me for hours with those words she doesn't like

[instrumental break]

But she's coming home tonight having dealt the final blow

Forgetting half and half of what she doesn't even know

She's coming home tonight having dealt the final blow

Forgetting half and half of what she doesn't even know
