Redecorate
There was a wonderful structure to the city
- There was a wonderful structure to the city
- And it put my cares to rest
- Taking inventory of his life
- Seeing snapshots chronologically inline
- Something told him he should look around and tidy up
- He collected many things but never quite enough
- Tried looking at it from a new perspective
- Flat on his back but he still heard the directive
- Orders from that corner where that shadow always lived
- Never asked permissions he just hopes that they forgive
- I don't want to go like this
- At least let me clean my room
- I don't want to leave like this
- 'Cause the last thing I want to do is
- Make my people make decisions
- Wondering what to do oh
- Should they keep it on display
- Or redecorate
- Blankets over mirrors she tends to like it
- She's not afraid of her reflection
- But of what she might see behind it
- She had plans to change her name
- Just not the traditional way
- Haunted by a couple big mistakes
- She covers all the dents with the way she decorates
- Then one night she got cold with no blankets on her bed
- So she ripped them off the mirror stepped back and she said
- I don't want to go like this
- At least let me clean my room
- I don't want to leave like this
- 'Cause the last thing I want to do is
- Make my people make decisions
- Wondering what to do oh
- Should they keep it on display
- Or redecorate
- With the bells and the whistles scaled back
- Like an isolated track
- And he feels trapped when he's not inebriated
- Fair to say he's fairly sedated most days of the week
- He might have made it if he lived on a different street
- I repeat scaled back and isolated
- He says he likes an open schedule but he mostly hates it
- If you're running to his room take a breath before you break-in
- Put your ear up to the door tell me can you hear him saying
- I don't want to go like this
- At least let me clean my room
- I don't want to leave like this
- 'Cause the last thing I want to do is
- Make my people make decisions
- Wondering what to do oh
- Should they keep it on display
- Or redecorate
- I don't want to go like this
- Go like this
- At least let me clean my room
- I don't want to leave like this
- Leave like this
- 'Cause the last thing I want to do is
- Make my people make decisions
- Wondering what to do oh
- Should they keep it on display
- Or redecorate
- Or redecorate
- Or redecorate
