Holocaust

This Mortal Coil


Holocaust


Your eyes are almost dead
Can't get out of bed.
And you can't sleep.
You're sitting down to dress
and you're a mess.
You look in the mirror.
You look in your eyes.
Say you realise.
Everybody goes leaving those who fall behind.
Everbody goes as far as they can, they just don't care.
They stood on the stairs
laughing at your errors.
Your mothers dead
she said "Don't be afraid."
Your mothers dead.
You're on your own.
She's in her bed.
Everybody goes leaving those who fall behind.
Everybody goes as far as they can, they just don't care.
You're a wasted face.
You're a sad eyed lie.
You're a holocaust.
