[Verse 1]

Sometimes, pear-shaped women melt down

Onto concrete

Splashing sun and sidewalk insects

Down by these feet

Sometimes, puddles terrify me

As they gaze up

Scrap of paper floating, crumpled

[Chorus]

I can't pick up

Goodbye

No one's ever gonna find out

From this shut mouth

Just be sure to keep these eyes closed

They can read those

[Verse 2]

Sometimes, people use their sound holes

Pointed at me

Rusty winds groaning down alleys

Blow right past me

Sometimes, pipes creaking inside here

Know me too well

Flesh and steel I had carved up

[Chorus]

For a farewell

Too late

No one's ever gonna find out

From this shut mouth

Just be sure to keep these eyes closed

They can read those

[Bridge]

I'll never wish for it

But now, it grows inside

Just like a moth

[Outro]

No one's ever gonna find out

From this shut mouth

Just be sure to keep these eyes closed

They can read those

No one's ever gonna find out

From this shut mouth
