lyrics

Good morning; hope it doesn't rain today.
She takes her trailer back to the trailer park.
Good morning; hope it doesn't rain today.
She takes her gown and bracelet out of the trunk.

She lives in a different zone;
the only one with the courage to die alone.
She lives in a different zone;
the only one who could save her is already gone.

I used to live in a small house,
but death surrounded that house;
I would walk around, just feeling all trapped and suffocated.
I used to live in a small house,
but no one lived inside that house;
I would invite people in, but they'd just to try to burn the house down.

It's a game of "you lose the game,
and everything turns in the wrong way";
people modify your emotions through simple gestures.
It's a game of "you lose the game,
and everything turns in the wrong way";
people do things to you that you've done to them.

Good morning; hope it doesn't rain today.
What a day to be the collector, and to be collected.
Good morning; hope it doesn't rain today.
What a day to spend the rest of your life alone.

You live in a different zone;
the only one who possesses total control.
You live in a different zone;
the only one who could save you, you ignore.

I love this song; I love this song.
I don't know if you're paying attention.

And I don't know why;
yeah, it's a dying planet.
And I don't know if
you are gonna take me off of it.
And I don't know why;
yeah, it's a hard world.
And I don't know why
you want to make it harder.

We live in different apartments now;
we still keep in touch.

There's some sort of evil in you;
I don't know who you are anymore.
