Shrug - Blood + Noise lyrics

She sits there every day at a table by the window Just a fixture cardboard cutout with a soul Composing sonnets to the constant cartoon static At a feed as she awaits her final role She had a dream the dead were dancing On the railroad bridge and some were glancing At her dressed in her mortal coil She had a dream the dead paraded Down St. Claire and all were naked And not ashamed, not afraid to spoil The perfect design of every day The latest big chance to make the blood + noise go away Her fiance is an architect who loves her more than life Does silly dances in the rain outside her house And if he could only realize that she could never marry him Then he would make a picture-perfect spouse She had a dream the sky had fallen Into the trees so wise and tall And beautiful, hung just out of reach She had a dream the world had ended And all the dead that she'd befriended Had left her standing lonely on the beach The perfect design of every day The latest big chance to make the blood + noise go away The perfect design of every day The latest big chance to make the blood + noise go away, yeah Blood + noise go away Blood + noise go away Blood + noise go away
