Lyrics

White picket fences Broken and battered Laying on the ground like they're signaling the rapture Last country farmstand closed The cows won't graze in parking lots Put them out to pasture That disappointment in your eyes, is like a beacon of disaster Like you're the harbinger of change, and I remain here cast in plaster That letter gathering up dust inside the drawer there by the bed Leave it unread Leave it unread These four white walls are closing in, and I'm hanging on, but by a thread All in my head All in my head You said Now I can't look at photographs of us, no Old videos, they all fade to black, I just go Home again, in the end Everything, is only what it was, oh Dated dreams, memories They just seem, to only give me pause, so I sit by the window, feel the warm air from my breath Knowing you're not coming back here it scares me to death Elizabeth Elizabeth Boarded up windows Covering the cracks up Letting in the light like a Baptist revival Transistor radio Playing all the classics Trying to save a soul that is begging for survival That number says it's disconnected, still I try, it's your reprisal Should I just stand here at the gate, dear should I wait for your arrival? That letter gathering up dust inside the drawer there by the bed Leave it unread Leave it unread These four white walls are closing in, and I'm hanging on, but by a thread All in my head All in my head You said I'm healed, I'm healed, I'm healed, I'm healed I'm healed, I'm healed, I'm healed, I'm healed, I'm healing It's real, it's real, it's real, it's real It's real, it's real, it's real, and I'm unreeling Now I can't look at photographs, of us, no Old videos, they all fade to black, I just go Home again, in the end Everything, is only what it was, oh Dated dreams, memories They just seem, to only give me pause, so I sit by the window, feel the warm air from my breath Knowing you're not coming back here it scares me to death Elizabeth Elizabeth
