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

[Verse 3]
D#m A#
Today I walked through the snow and found a field of headstones
D#m A#
They were in rows like the weeks on calendars
D#m A#
Where each box is a day that you can ever escape
D#m A# D#m
Without pills for your poisonous sleep
D#m A#
Now, these memories leak from these faucets that weep
D#m A#
Hot tears splash against the shower floor
D#m A#
And I stand in the steam as if inside a dream
D#m A#
I can see her again by the sink
[Verse 4]
D#m A#
From behind the bathroom mirror she pulls a thermometer
D#m A#
And placed it underneath my tounge
D#m A#
She said, "You are as pale as a sheet, you look awful my sweet
D#m A#
Lay down and wait for the sun"
D#m A#
So I stayed in that bed, she brought me water and read
D#m A#
Each night from a volume out loud
D#m A#
She whispered soft poetry, her favorite was Anabel Lee
D#m A#
And those words, like these drugs, comforted me
[Verse 5]
D#m A#
But the clocks kept waving their hands and she could not understand
D#m A#
Why my temperature would never drop
D#m A#
And although she promised with tears that she would always be here
D#m A# D#m
I heard truth like the sounding sea
D#m A#
I said, "My Arienette, oh, how soon you'll forget
D#m A#
This house will never be your home
D#m A#
And you will leave in the fall when the trees become graves
D#m A# D#m
And their color lie dead in the grass"
[Chorus]
A# D7
Gold and green torture me
Gm
Like the lies, like the lies, like the lies
F7
I believe too easily
A# D7
Oh my Jetsabel, look at this hell that I have made
Gm
If you want maybe drop by sometime
F7
Put some flowers on my grave
A# D7
So that I will look beautiful in my silent sepulchur
Gm
Yeah, that's fine, throw those dresses away
F7 A#
I don't want anything of hers
[Outro]
D#m A#
For the moon never shines
D#m A#
And the stars never rise
D#m A#
Without bringing me dreams
D#m N.C.
Haunted by the ghosts of those bright eyes
