Lyrics for Album: Reconstruction Site
Doctors played your dosage like a card-trick. Scrabbled down
the hallways yelling "Yahtzee!" I brought books on Hopper,
and the Arctic, something called "The Politics of Lonely," a
toothbrush and a quick-pick with the plus. You tried not to roll
your sunken eyes, and said "Hey can you help me, I can't
reach it." Pointed at the camera in the ceiling. I climbed up,
blocked it so they couldn't see. Turned to find you out of bed,
and kneeling. Before the nurses came, took you away, I
stood there on a chair and watched you pray
