lyrics

LYRICS:

At the end, past rows of motel rooms,
between the office and the window with the lakeshore view,
there’s a door jammed tight with a lock that’s broken through.
A strange feeling inside that follows you.

White curtain guards a forgotten life.
Calendar unchanged December 2005.
Stillness in the air. All the rooms are unoccupied.
You can feel the eyes that follow you.

Cabinets full. Counters left a mess.
Clothes in the closets. Someone there took the best.
Possessions unclaimed. The photos didn’t last.
Watched by an unnamed friend that follows you.

The last room down the hall is where it ends.
Breeze from the window, green carpet, and a bench.
From a bar hangs thirteen knots tied at the neck.
All while the eyes of Mary follow you.
