The phone slips from a loose gripWords were missed, then some apologyI didn't want to tell you thisNo, it's just some guy she's been hanging out withI don't know, the past couple of weeks, I guessThank you and hang up the phoneLet the funeral start, hear the casket closeLet's pin split black ribbon to your overcoatThe laughter pours from under doors in this houseI don't understand that sound no moreSeems artificial, like a TV setHaligh, Haligh, a lie, HalighThis weight, it must be satisfiedYou offer only one replyYou know not what you doAs you tear and tear your hair from rootsOf that same head you've twice removedNow, a lock of hair you said would proveOur love would never die, well, ha ha haI remember everything, the words we spoke on freezing South StreetAll those mornings watching you get ready for schoolYou combed your hair inside that mirrorThe one you painted blue and glued with jewelry tearsSomething about those bright colorsWould always make you feel betterBut now we speak with ruined tonguesAnd the words we say aren't meant for anyoneIt's just a mumbled sentence to a passing acquaintanceBut there was once youYou said you hate my suffering, and you understoodAnd you'd take care of meYou'd always be there, where are you now?Haligh, Haligh, a lie, HalighThe plans were never finalizedBut left to hang like yarn and twineDangling before my eyesAs you tear and tear your hair from rootsFrom that same head that you have twice removedNow, a lock of hair you said would proveOur love would never dieAnd I sing and sing of awful thingsThe pleasure that my sadness bringsAs my fingers press onto the stringsYet another clumsy chordHaligh, Haligh, an awful lieThis weight would now be satisfiedI'm gonna give you only one replyI know not who I am?But I talk in the mirrorTo the stranger that appearsOur conversations are circlesAlways one sided, nothing is clearExcept we keep coming backTo this meaning that I lackHe says The choices were givenAnd now, you must live themOr just not liveBut do you want that?
