Lyrics
light in the attic
truck in the yard
tv static shotgun beneath the bar
double cassette kiss on the deck
shag carpet in the kitchen 5 days late on rent
standing still
silhouette in the window
shadows from blue to grey
lost in some strange limbo
parakeet died alone in it's cage
standing still is it still standing
answering machine memory full
photos on the mirror of friends back in school
body laid low cool against the ground
left the grave open so you could see out
standing still, i guess it's still standing, i guess it's still standing
my ex girlfriend wrote poems on her thighs
with a knife that she heated on the stove most nights
out the window a view of power lines
and the neighbors property trailer on it's side
standing still
silhouette in the window
shadows from blue to grey
lost in some strange limbo
parakeet died alone in it's cage
standing still is it still standing
in the basement by candlelight
thunder and lightning storm outside
tornado sirens this could be it
we've waited our whole lives for something like this
