Norma Lyrics

A bedside bottle of dark
A vague cape of decision eating its' path to your heavy heart

Why are we asking why?
Did you wonder as you wept?

I watched you cry some time ago
You conveyed to me your conviction
You told me through your eyes that you were being eaten slow
And the helpless soul I am,
all I could do was bear to listen

We slap your icon around like a stick
We swing your body around like it's a pillow full of pills
and we'll spill you out
While we hope that you'll slump back to us with one good hit

We are apologies waved by sinners in the wind
We are commandments split open with a pin
I held your hand with my heart
We weigh in the same, though it should not be this way

With my ear pressed against the recieving end
I can hear the rhythms when they end
I wish you would have wished for better...
I wish you would have wished for better...
