lyrics

Check the mirror once more to be sure
that this is the real life, and that sound is the sound that I heard
and this sight is the sight that I saw
I'm in the bathroom, waiting for the other shoe to fall
'cause I knew the call was untrue the moment that I heard it,
but the letter has her handwriting, and all the sordid
details that we shared from a female perspective:
persuasive enough to be abrasively effective.
But it's got to be deceptive, 'cause Mary is long gone.
So then why respond to this con? Is it 'cause I still feel wrong?
Is it 'cause I'm not strong? Is it 'cause I feel alone?
Or somebody found me out and now my cover's blown?
I got a closet full of bones. A pantry full of skeletons.
In the House of Secrets, I'm a permanent resident.
You set the littlest precedent that shows you might return,
and I'mma upturn my life to see you reborn.

Tell me now, James. Do you deserve all this pain?

Static and...fog. It's unclear what you want, dear.
And it appears I'm in arrears on my promise to you to come here.
And I'd shed one tear if I could find a tear to spare,
but my blood, sweat, and tears are in a constant state of scar-
city, 'cause this Scare City's got me on the run.
I must be one dumb dude, 'cause even though it's no fun,
I keep maintaining the hunt, but my patience's wearing thin,
and my health is wearing low, and my head is set to spin,
but I'm meeting lots of friends! That's our vacation tradition.
I met a man who looks suspicious, and a girl with disposition
to self-harm, and a tyke with a mission like mine:
to find Mary Sunderland--or die tryin'.

I swear I saw you smile in the dark in the park.
My heart pounded in my cheast as we met. You remarked:
"Do I look like your girlfriend?" Uh, yeah, you do.
"Then stay with me!" Stop bein' rude!
I'm not here for you. Though you look like my lady,
you're shady. A snake in the grass, too hasty
to snatch up a white knight. Something's not quite right.
You look like her, but spoutin' trite tripe:
"Stop mistaking me for her. Mary's dead. You killed her."
Bitch! Do I look like a killer?
Don't act bewildered! She had a disease.
I wouldn't hurt Mary. Now please, let's proceed
to the place I believe that she wants me to see:
that's the hotel where she and I had found peace.
Now cease your--HOLY SHIT, WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?!
I DON'T WANNA DIE! I'mma skeedaddle. Scat.
Whew. Oops. I've forsaken the harlot.
Her days are numbered. Or lettered. A study in scarlet.
Shit...wait. I left her to die.
Does that mean I'm as much killer as she implied?

Not much time remaining. For all the inhumane things
I did, I need to do some explaining:
I'll claim to what you think. Mary's dead. I killed her,
then rebuilt her as Maria. Just as I willed it.
But the hole wasn't filled yet. So I gotta leave. Ciao.
There was a hole here. (beat, beat) It's gone, now.
And I made the wrong vow. Shouldn't have hoped you were living.
Asked for more time. Should've asked for forgiveness.
And if this rings untrue, or sounds somewhat hollow,
if it seems I took too big of a chunk and can't swallow,
then follow me on this--I insist, I'll make it right.
I'mma shift my car to kiss water tonight.
And it's just me and my beloved at the bottom of Toluca.
I hope this makes it up to ya.
