Verse
Em B
My brother finds comfort in calculators
Em B
He assigns every number a name
Em B
He believes that they add up to certainty
Em B
And he is upset with fractions that remain
Em B
So I examine the maps with my eyes and at best
Em B
I can trace with my finger all the way
Em B
To that town where she went an attempt to forget
Em B Em
The cracks and the lines of my face
[Verse 2]
Em B
So Jetsabel cleaned out the closets for me
Em B
And she piled the boxes in the hall
Em B
Tomorrow when she wakes she'll come take them away
Em B
And they will never haunt me again
Em B
But it is still hard to sleep with the moon's heavy beams
Em B
I run barefoot to the backyard
Em B
Just to freeze in my place by the rod iron gate
Em B Em
Too ashamed and afraid to advance
[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
Em B
Today I walked through the snow and found a field of headstones
Em B
They were in rows like the weeks on calendars
Em B
Where each box is a day that you can ever escape
Em B Em
Without pills for your poisonous sleep
Em B
Now, these memories leak from these faucets that weep
Em B
Hot tears splash against the shower floor
Em B
And I stand in the steam as if inside a dream
Em B
I can see her again by the sink
[Verse 4]
Em B
From behind the bathroom mirror she pulls a thermometer
Em B
And placed it underneath my tounge
Em B
She said, "You are as pale as a sheet, you look awful my sweet
Em B
Lay down and wait for the sun"
Em B
So I stayed in that bed, she brought me water and read
Em B
Each night from a volume out loud
Em B
She whispered soft poetry, her favorite was Anabel Lee
Em B
And those words, like these drugs, comforted me
[Verse 5]
Em B
But the clocks kept waving their hands and she could not understand
Em B
Why my temperature would never drop
Em B
And although she promised with tears that she would always be here
Em B Em
I heard truth like the sounding sea
Em B
I said, "My Arienette, oh, how soon you'll forget
Em B
This house will never be your home
Em B
And you will leave in the fall when the trees become graves
Em B Em
And their color lie dead in the grass"
[Chorus]
B Eb7
Gold and green torture me
Abm
Like the lies, like the lies, like the lies
F#7
I believe too easily
B Eb7
Oh my Jetsabel, look at this hell that I have made
Abm
If you want maybe drop by sometime
F#7
Put some flowers on my grave
B Eb7
So that I will look beautiful in my silent sepulchur
Abm
Yeah, that's fine, throw those dresses away
F#7 B
I don't want anything of hers
[Outro]
Em B
For the moon never shines
Em B
And the stars never rise
Em B
Without bringing me dreams
Em N.C.
Haunted by the ghosts of those bright eyes
