You're still here but just check to make sure
All you aspired to do was endure

Pretty words that you whispered
Maybe I misunderstood
Somebody's not paying attention
What they promise and their word isn't good
Oh, Mary K, I can see your face
Down there in the waves, painted and erased
But I know it's just a reflection of the moon
A big fake resembling you

The Argus he cries, though love has its place in the sun
It's only man's fear that carries him on

Dry your eyes
I won't tell your mother
She won't ever discover
The things you kept under the covers
And please don't cry
I am not your brother
I am not your lover
And there is nothing wrong

You’ll keep your doors and windows shut
And swear you'll never show a soul again but
Isolation
Pushes you ‘til
Every muscle aches
Down the only road
It ever takes
