lyrics

The Hopper Window

Burning trash in the basement fireplace
Hiding the smell of your smoke break
The bottle of rye hidden behind the furnace
The remedy and the cause of your headache

Sweep the cement and fill up the corners
With the things you no longer can use
Moldy old boxes and grey wooden crates
Piled high with yesterday’s news

You never told me who fired that shot
through the hopper window
Was the mangled bullet you kept in a drawer
meant for you or meant for someone else?

They say you left the city in a hurry
With secrets as deep as a canyon
Moved to the country, bought all new things
And the old things could rot in the dungeon

A sofa from the 30s in outdated yellow
A mirror with a flattering curve
A rusty set of weights for a once handsome fellow
A love letter you no longer deserve

You never told me who fired that shot
through the hopper window
Was the mangled bullet you kept in a drawer
meant for you or meant for someone else
