lyrics

So I'm a peacock pictured in black and white
Featherweight who threw the fight
And i repeat myself like history
and get ignored as easily

Now i'm an anchor with nothing left
to hold down except myself
But you're weightless like a skeleton
It's lonely there under your skin

And with your hair dripping wet you rode off into the sunset
You caught all their eyes just to leave them all blind

You're a vacant sign that's always turned on
The boys are lined up on your lawn
But you're boring like the afternoon
They'll cut you just to lick your wounds

And i saw the forest through the trees
from a bridge burnin' under me
