It's there on the wall
I can't remember why
I keep it at all
The doors are cold and
All the windows seem gray
I write the book
There's so much more I should say
And now it's over
I write it all down
No one to notice
One less face in the crowd
Our eyes are open
When it suits us to say
Dear God in heaven
Show no mercy to me
I shed no tears
And there's no reason for shame
A small consolation
Hides a stone with her name
Just a victim
Still the light shines all bright
Think I'll hold it tonight
