lyrics

I killed your mother, stripped her bones
and now I'm somewhere in your home
and holding them up to the light to watch them glisten
Alright that isn't true
it's just I need to talk to you
it seemed the quickest way to make you listen

There is no wise blood in my body now
in fact it barely seems to know a thing
It rushes down and rises up
and never thinks about the trouble it will bring
And when the heat was there between us
well I thought you were the comfort of my home
but now the chill endures and though I've tried
it seems the life I saved was not my own

They say a good man's hard to find
and that the search will turn you blind
and when I spilled red wine across your book you didn't mind
But now you're never here
I barely see you twice a year
and were you a reading list, I'd fall behind

And now you're boxing up your books and records
and to see it puts me in a state
well I'll be keeping all the Flannery O'Connor
should you ever check the crate
And now you're boxing up your books and records
and to see it really is too much
well if you want to get your Flannery O'Connor back
you'll have to stay in touch

Every spine uncracked
Every spine intact
Every page unmatched
Every spine intact

And I know everything that rises must converge
but must it do it at this rate?
I've been reading all your Flannery O'Connor
and it's put me in a state
And I know everything that rises must converge
but must it do it at this time?
It could be worse, you could be Flannery O'Connor
and be dead at 39
