<lyrics>
When sight goes
I'll lead you around the excavation
Where grass grows
And remnants of you in placation
Your breath sounds
Inhaling a portrait, it's frozen
In blue gowns
You trace along the house which you have chosen
And holding tightly
When sound is dead will you sing in time
And lie
When life meets child, your only pride
You lie
When ceilings smile, we'll sleep a while
And lie
I'll take you for walks among the patients

She had a pretty dad
But she was growing out of play-school
Still she could kick and scream and play
Until she wanted to
My little chocolate girl
Her brother barely out of high school
Lived in a place where he could scream
Until he wanted to
Oh fuzzy tabby cat
And she could bury him in apples
and curl around a bowl of cotton
'Til she wanted to

Still she had to speak loud
'Cause hearing isn't hiding the widows
And eats in
And picks her Sunday flowers in the garden
And cries late
Still drinking with the boys until it's ran out
And prays long
In hopes of something better for the children
And holding tightly
When sound is dead we'll sing in time
And lie
When life meets child, your only pride
Can lie
When ceilings smile, we'll sleep a while
And lie
I'll take you for walks among the patients

She met a pretty boy
And they would dance between their elders
And she would cream until the wine she bought
Had settled in
Our little chocolate girl
She used to love the stars from England
She slept on records and her marble jewelry
From her skin
Her colors matched the room
And she would twirl around the curtains
She had a hand to hold her chin up
When her friends left town
The kid across the street
He'll keep around when she was changing
And he would wink and she would tell her friends
About the boy
Her mother died at home
She had saliva in her pockets
She gave a groan when her last taste had finally
Gave up the day

So goodbye chocolate girl
Oh won't you leave your name

So push your lanterns on across the maze
So I won't feast on folly
Better love the rain who brought the stings endear
And who will pop the triggers
I can't see you
I'll open up my brain again
