That Remains there's no room in the infinite gloom for a girl with a conscience she looks out beyond rigid wings and the view is astonishing she opens the cargo door carefully and then she is gone, to the wind they bought their young son a new car and a Yale education I caught a strange gray in his eye but I missed desperation he couldn't focus on a future that was darkening just saw the flash, in his hand all that remains are the memories 'cause you've robbed them of your warm embrace the loneliest play of a soul gone astray leaves them behind in disgrace suicide, death in hypnotic disguise there falls another, and another of the greenest leaves torn from this tree in defeat he suffered the love of his wife kissed goodnight to the children then traded them in in pursuit of the pleasures that thrilled him deep feelings of peace and release as he pushed liquid clouds, through his veins all that remains are the memories 'cause you've robbed them of your warm embrace the loneliest play of a soul gone astray leaves them behind in disgrace suicide, death in hypnotic disguise there falls another, and another of the greenest leaves torn from this tree in defeat |
