about

This song is dedicated to Anne Frank.

lyrics

The only thing we wait for is our own life to start but when it ends like Such a mess as hers you know you never had a chance
Because where she woke up on the last day she didn’t have crumb
Of what we thought was wishful thinking just to get us through our day
But rats will walk these halls with more ease than any missionary
Would have ever taken to the grave for the natives and the pain
She watched herself wither on away
To nothing but dust as she had began

Returning herself to where she came
The blackness none of us can evade
but when you dream of me do not think of the clergy or the priest
i made a big bouquet for you of dead roses and burned books too

So when you’re nervous on your wedding day
Do not think of me to blame
But pray for insolence or dismay
The only things that could not give you away

The only thing you will wait for is your own life to start
but when it ends like such a mess as hers you’ll know you never had a chance
Because when you wake up on the last day you won’t have a single thought
of where your happy ending went or where the avant-guard had gone
they’ll bury you alive with two headed boys and roses in your eyes
