The Gory Details

Can you tell yourselves apart?
Can you really offer me an answer
And leave your homes back in town?
Stop hanging around

This is what I’ve held in check
For all the times that your ignored me
And nailed my feet to the ground
I’m understandably wound

And it’s always in my head
What you did and what you said
You won’t hear me cry aloud
When the walls start shaking

Thinking of your master plan
Involving beery epithets
Don’t spare me any gory details
Send regards thru the mail

And it’s always in my head
What you did and what you said
You won’t hear me cry aloud
When the walls start shaking

Like the long and hateful look
Like the medicine I took
I wonder how I found you
Good enough to pay attention to
Now everything is cool
Now everything I thought’s untrue

Can you tell yourselves apart?
Can you really offer me an answer
And leave your homes back in town?
Stop hanging around
