The Scar
I'd like to sneak around your houseWhen everyone's asleepTiptoe across the door-room matThat used to welcome meThen gently shut the doorTo see a brand-new Christmas treeAnd the silence pounds like a kettle drumAnd a chill runs through me
[Chorus:]But does she ever miss me?I still hear her singingJust like an orchestraJust like a paintingWith velvet brushesAnd wooden framingShe's a familiar MonetThat's worth renamingThe scar
I choked up the dirt, completely hurtI ran straight through them allThen pushed aside what's left of prideAnd trembled through the hallAnd there stands a door you'd seen beforeWhen all you knew you was downBut your perfume breathBrought peaceful deathOn sleepy silver gowns
[Chorus]
Yeah, to wake is such a dreaded thingTo sleep is such a holeI eat without your companyI drink 'till I unfoldAnd now hear the end of everythingJust thrown onto the groundBut October fell and broke my shellAnd all I knew was down
[Chorus]
