lyrics

Leslie talks to her newspaper piles
April 8, 2009 says, “No worries.”
And Leslie screams, “What the hell are you talking about!?”
“These stories here could take your eyes out!”

And Leslie cries
So she grabs a light
And reads about an 11-year-old boy
Who shot himself today
While her lungs fill with smoke and her cancer grows

Leslie pulls down the shades
Looking outside, but never walking out
“You’re crazy,” she says to herself, almost casually
While the newspaper towers pile higher

And Leslie smiles
At the wrinkled and torn photograph

A picture of her sweet Jacqueline
Whose body rots beneath an apple tree
She went missing 20 years ago

Leslie still remembers her
Leslie still remembers her
Oh, Leslie still remembers her
Leslie still remembers her

And Leslie cries
So she grabs a light
As her cigarette falls from her hands
Newspaper catches fire
Now nothing but her flesh and bones remain
