"my neighbor" lyrics

"my neighbor"

Ooh, let me love, let me love, let me love, let me love
Ooh, let me love, let me love, let me love, let me love
Ooh, let me love, let me love, let me love, let me love
Ooh, let me love, let me love, let me love, let me love

My neighbor held the key to my survival
The loneliest woman I ever saw
Her death around the corner
Her children screaming at her
Pounding fists upon her rotting wooden floor
My neighbor held the key to my survival
I made sure to lock the door

Ooh, let me love, let me love, let me love, let me love
Ooh, let me love, let me love, let me love, let me love
Ooh, let me love, let me love, let me love, let me love
Ooh, let me love, let me love, let me love, let me love

My enemy held the key to my survival
But my envy overtook my brain
I saw her doubled over
And recognized myself and said
"Perhaps I'll quit besmirching her name"
Oh, my enemy held the key to my survival
And I killed her all the same

Time, it's time, it's time, it's time
Time, it's time, it's time, it's time

My neighbor held the key to my survival
The garbage truck kept passing her by
Another week full of trash
She folds herself exactly in half

Ooh, let me love, let me love, let me love, let me love
Ooh, let me love, let me love, let me love, let me love
Ooh, let me love, let me love, let me love, let me love
Ooh, let me love, let me love, let me love, let me love
