Lyrics
[Verse 1] Fragments from the decade are splayed out on your floor Like hundreds of locked doors There's a story that you're trying to find But the pieces don't fit together in your mind [Verse 2] Your mother was a drunkard Your father was not a saint Your sister lacked restraint And in photos you were always staring through the lens To some distant place you would rather have been [Chorus] Days are lonely and long Walking in place where you don't belong Here on paved native lands Time disappears from the palms of your hands [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] Fragments from the decade are dancing in the fire Like marionettes on wires And if you stare too long they almost Seem alive Too beautiful and helpless to survive [Chorus] Days are lonely and long Walking in place where you don't belong Here on paved native lands Time disappears from the palms of your hands
