Norma Jean
...Discipline Your Daughters
I can't recall that last day of sun
Curtains closed
And sitting with the lights out
An uncertain emptiness surrounds me
I'm numb and my judgments
Have switched to autopilot
Nothing left but echoes
And thoughts of moving on
Don't stay away
Don't stay here
Tell me all your secrets
I promise I'll be listening
And if you ever come back home
I'll be waiting patiently
Tell me nothing sacred
I promise I won't hear a word
And if you ever come back home
I won't act so patiently
Black feathers
And an unannounced call
These things go hand in hand
Like talking to you
And the intake of glass
I hope this knife in my hand
Speaks for itself
Don't stay away
Don't stay here
Tell me all your secrets
I promise I'll be listening
And if you ever come back home
I'll be waiting patiently
Tell me nothing sacred
I promise I won't hear a word
And if you ever come back home
I won't act so patiently
She's not coming back
Tell me all your secrets
I promise I'll be listening
And if you ever come back home
I'll be waiting patiently
Don't stay away
Don't stay here
Tell me all your secrets
I promise I'll be listening
And if you ever come back home
I'll be waiting patiently
Tell me nothing sacred
I promise I won't hear a word
And if you ever come back home
I won't act so patiently
She's not coming back
