"Ghost Mother" lyrics
Can't you tell that I'm blind and I'm broken
Can't you see I'm sad and I'm under fed
Don't you see the trouble with mice -
Is they're fragile as glass when they're grasping for life
Isolate the kids - the misfits
Lobotomize the kids that learn too slow
Can't you tell the Father's not home
Mom is sick, so the kids eat alone
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
Pain without rhyme or reason
And there's no one to blame
Papoose me and love me
And tell me it's okay
Can't you tell that I'm numb and I'm homesick
Can't you see I'm scared and my home's no home
Don't you see the trouble with mice -
Is they're fragile as glass when they're grasping for life
How'd you miss the cuts I'd show you?
How'd you miss the tears from extra time?
Can't you see the swing's to tight -
Reedy can't read, so he said goodnight
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
Pain without rhyme or reason
And there's no one to blame
Papoose me and love me
And tell me it's okay
I was left behind
I was left behind
It's you fault that I'm damaged
It's your fault I was left behind
Don't you see the trouble with mice -
Is they're fragile as glass when they're grasping for life
It's your fault I was lonely
It's your fault I was on my own
Can't you tell the Father's not home
Mom is sick, so the kids eat alone
Kids eat alone
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
Pain without rhyme or reason
And there's no one to blame
Papoose me and love me
And tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay
Can't you see I'm sad and I'm under fed
Don't you see the trouble with mice -
Is they're fragile as glass when they're grasping for life
Isolate the kids - the misfits
Lobotomize the kids that learn too slow
Can't you tell the Father's not home
Mom is sick, so the kids eat alone
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
Pain without rhyme or reason
And there's no one to blame
Papoose me and love me
And tell me it's okay
Can't you tell that I'm numb and I'm homesick
Can't you see I'm scared and my home's no home
Don't you see the trouble with mice -
Is they're fragile as glass when they're grasping for life
How'd you miss the cuts I'd show you?
How'd you miss the tears from extra time?
Can't you see the swing's to tight -
Reedy can't read, so he said goodnight
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
Pain without rhyme or reason
And there's no one to blame
Papoose me and love me
And tell me it's okay
I was left behind
I was left behind
It's you fault that I'm damaged
It's your fault I was left behind
Don't you see the trouble with mice -
Is they're fragile as glass when they're grasping for life
It's your fault I was lonely
It's your fault I was on my own
Can't you tell the Father's not home
Mom is sick, so the kids eat alone
Kids eat alone
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
The puzzle's broke and the pieces don't fit
Pain without rhyme or reason
And there's no one to blame
Papoose me and love me
And tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay
Tell me it's okay
