we decide to put a lightbulb inside the ghost's chest
hang it up at the window, staring out at the fence
and when we go outside i can see inside
you neighbor's building
who knew they'd be exposed like that
and all the tulips are wilting
we decide to pluck flowers and hide them in packages
you write me a letter on a receipt from breakfast
and when we go outside i can see inside your best friend's car
they're smokin a cigarette, trying to calm their heart real fast
and i said, i can relate to that
the building is orange and it has horns
of gargoyles if you look enough
the air conditioning units jut all the way up
and do you ever wonder how many bodies?
and do you ever wonder how anybody deals with their ghost?
hanging up at the window
a signal to go home.
