lyrics
Two flashes, come home
Be at peace under the lamp lit halo
Stay low, show no weakness in the face of death
Her last breath left my brethren lambent
Hear the creek in the doors, the floors and the walls
She's the mist in the halls, the frail shape within the falls
Five, ten, twenty below as she'd enter
Shiver creeps up the spine of the frail renter
You think she's a killer but she's even worse
Implant the idea for a life inverse
Reverse your life, feel like Fyfe
A man in strife with a dead wife
Grimace at the boy, become legendary
Frown for the mother in the cemetery
You read it in the man's obituary, there was one against many
Two flashes, come home
Be at peace under the lamp lit halo
This house took my mother away
Bled her of the blessings of Yahweh
We thought it led us astray
Today we stay and lay in a house so gray
A house so fragile, a house so precious
Guilt, pain, confusion and sadness
It's all of us who are here in this madness
In the red room I find addiction
Rehab and the gutter were my only two places
Faces and traces of maggot ridden spaces
90 days sober but I feel so graceless
At 6 years old I met death
My breath left me and today I shutter at the thought of thee
A pale ridden maggot eaten face
Disgraced by the Lord, he remains in this place
Will I ever come home?
He remains in this house, gripping my soul
Wherever I may roam...
Shuddering at the thought
Shuddering at the thought of her never making her mark
Joey may die along with me
River Phoenix fate along with me
See us in the streets
Bumming for the needles
Quivering, shivering in the cold in the dark in withdrawals
Frail shape within the falls now inside of the halls
Say you'll remember me
Even in the gutter even though you used me
Even though you stole my money even though you left me broke
When you croak and I croak at least we tried to keep afloat
Two flashes, come home... two flashes, come home...
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven...
