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

[Verse 3]
C#m G#
Today I walked through the snow and found a field of headstones
C#m G#
They were in rows like the weeks on calendars
C#m G#
Where each box is a day that you can ever escape
C#m G# C#m
Without pills for your poisonous sleep
C#m G#
Now, these memories leak from these faucets that weep
C#m G#
Hot tears splash against the shower floor
C#m G#
And I stand in the steam as if inside a dream
C#m G#
I can see her again by the sink
[Verse 4]
C#m G#
From behind the bathroom mirror she pulls a thermometer
C#m G#
And placed it underneath my tounge
C#m G#
She said, "You are as pale as a sheet, you look awful my sweet
C#m G#
Lay down and wait for the sun"
C#m G#
So I stayed in that bed, she brought me water and read
C#m G#
Each night from a volume out loud
C#m G#
She whispered soft poetry, her favorite was Anabel Lee
C#m G#
And those words, like these drugs, comforted me
[Verse 5]
C#m G#
But the clocks kept waving their hands and she could not understand
C#m G#
Why my temperature would never drop
C#m G#
And although she promised with tears that she would always be here
C#m G# C#m
I heard truth like the sounding sea
C#m G#
I said, "My Arienette, oh, how soon you'll forget
C#m G#
This house will never be your home
C#m G#
And you will leave in the fall when the trees become graves
C#m G# C#m
And their color lie dead in the grass"
[Chorus]
G# C7
Gold and green torture me
Fm
Like the lies, like the lies, like the lies
D#7
I believe too easily
G# C7
Oh my Jetsabel, look at this hell that I have made
Fm
If you want maybe drop by sometime
D#7
Put some flowers on my grave
G# C7
So that I will look beautiful in my silent sepulchur
Fm
Yeah, that's fine, throw those dresses away
D#7 G#
I don't want anything of hers
[Outro]
C#m G#
For the moon never shines
C#m G#
And the stars never rise
C#m G#
Without bringing me dreams
C#m N.C.
Haunted by the ghosts of those bright eyes
