lyrics

Why are you shaking?
We’ll bury this problem in the great backyard.
When no one’s watching
I’ll scatter grass seed over the scar.

I’ll light a fire
And we’ll burn the records and drown the ash.
I’ll boil the lye, and I will make soap.
Wash away our tracks.

Everything we rinse away or burn
Or hide beneath our feet
We will forget about in time
And all the unrelenting noises
Will be children laughing
Music playing, our own voices
Full of sound and fury
Signifying nothing.

We’ll keep our secrets
All of our shames wrapped in blankets and dirt
And we’ll keep on going
Over our story till it sounds unrehearsed.
