JEREMY

at home and drawing pictures of mountain tops, with him on top
lemon yellow sun, arms raised in a v
and the dead lay in pools of maroon below
daddy didn't give attention
to the fact that mommy didn't care
king jeremy the wicked, ruled his world
jeremy spoke in class today
jeremy spoke in class today
clearly i remember pickin' on the boy
seemed a harmless little fuck
but we unleashed a lion
gnashed his teeth and bit the recess lady's breast
how could i forget?
and he hit me with a surprise left
my jaw left hurtin', dropped wide open
just like the day, like the day i heard
daddy didn't give affection, no
and the boy was something that mommy wouldn't wear
king jeremy the wicked, ruled his world
jeremy spoke in class today
jeremy spoke in class today
jeremy spoke in class today
try to forget this...try to forget this...
try to erase this...try to erase this...
from the blackboard...
jeremy spoke in class today
jeremy spoke in class today
jeremy spoke in, spoke in
jeremy spoke in, spoke in
jeremy spoke in class today...
[spoke in, spoke in...]





FOOTSTEPS [LIVE]

don't even think about reachin' me, i won't be home
don't even think about stoppin' by, don't think of me at all
i did, what i had to do, if there was a reason, it was you...
don't even think about gettin' inside
voices in me head...ooh, voices
i got scratches, all over my arms
one for each day, since i fell apart
i did...oh, what i had to do, if there was a reason, it was you
footsteps in the hall, it was you, you...oh...
pictures on my chest, it was you, it was you...
hey...i did, what i had to do...oh, and if there was a reason
oh, there wasn't no reason, no
and if, there's something you'd like to do
just let me continue, to blame you
footsteps in the hall, it was you, you...oh...
pictures on my chest, it was you, you...oh...
