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

[Verse 3]
Gm D
Today I walked through the snow and found a field of headstones
Gm D
They were in rows like the weeks on calendars
Gm D
Where each box is a day that you can ever escape
Gm D Gm
Without pills for your poisonous sleep
Gm D
Now, these memories leak from these faucets that weep
Gm D
Hot tears splash against the shower floor
Gm D
And I stand in the steam as if inside a dream
Gm D
I can see her again by the sink
[Verse 4]
Gm D
From behind the bathroom mirror she pulls a thermometer
Gm D
And placed it underneath my tounge
Gm D
She said, "You are as pale as a sheet, you look awful my sweet
Gm D
Lay down and wait for the sun"
Gm D
So I stayed in that bed, she brought me water and read
Gm D
Each night from a volume out loud
Gm D
She whispered soft poetry, her favorite was Anabel Lee
Gm D
And those words, like these drugs, comforted me
[Verse 5]
Gm D
But the clocks kept waving their hands and she could not understand
Gm D
Why my temperature would never drop
Gm D
And although she promised with tears that she would always be here
Gm D Gm
I heard truth like the sounding sea
Gm D
I said, "My Arienette, oh, how soon you'll forget
Gm D
This house will never be your home
Gm D
And you will leave in the fall when the trees become graves
Gm D Gm
And their color lie dead in the grass"
[Chorus]
D Gb7
Gold and green torture me
Cbm
Like the lies, like the lies, like the lies
A7
I believe too easily
D Gb7
Oh my Jetsabel, look at this hell that I have made
Cbm
If you want maybe drop by sometime
A7
Put some flowers on my grave
D Gb7
So that I will look beautiful in my silent sepulchur
Cbm
Yeah, that's fine, throw those dresses away
A7 D
I don't want anything of hers
[Outro]
Gm D
For the moon never shines
Gm D
And the stars never rise
Gm D
Without bringing me dreams
Gm N.C.
Haunted by the ghosts of those bright eyes
