1542 - Mary Timony

Composer：Mary Timony

I watched your father's house

From 1542

You watched me on the couch

Knocked out by the blues

Your friend was a louse

But I tried to make him see

The devil inside me and the song of the bee

Way down below

You played the fender Rhodes

How was supposed to know that you did not even like me

These Polaroid's are black but in them you can see

There's nothing inside you and nothing in me

The radio played on while no one was home

There were fires everywhere

And leaves on the stairs

The engine arrived at your Florida motel

For a 100 dead souls that couldn't be found at all

Out on the lawn I stood by the pool

Your house was just as tall

The needle and the jewel
