The lyrics for this song were inspired by the book The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold. This is a demo, and the 'real' version's underway for the new disc due out Spring '08.

Listen to the mp3

Crashing downstairs
Fury in my room
Stranded in my house
But I'll be leaving soon

Presents in the closet
Pictures on the wall
Clothes in the dresser
And your ghost in the hall

Searching, new clues
Chin up, wait
Grand plan, chaos
Jesus, fate

Don't mean to be scary
It may not look like me
Broken ships in bottles
And your clothes
Your clothes from the deputy

I still love you
But when you think of me
Remember to let go
It only holds you down to keep missing me

Family that's broken
Stand and try to heal
Leaving you behind now
And your ghost

Nothing's ever certain
I wore that one out
Kept you here with me too long
And your clothes
And your ghost
Your bones are so close
And your bones all around
