We could blame the realtors
And negoriate a trade
For the worse times spent,
I saw you dragging your way to that bedroom
One eye left, the other a right
I guess we'd forgotten our place
How we lived
How we survived
How we chose to die
But more or less I knew we'd never get back
I don't know why
You see, you saw me standing on the edge
Senile, a bit surprised
It was my becoming
And the way you built the tension around these walls
God, you were so wrong
Or what purpose drove you
But nothing stands there anymore
Where once the trailer shaded our sleep
Nothing's there but a barren scattered ghost
And negoriate a trade
For the worse times spent,
I saw you dragging your way to that bedroom
One eye left, the other a right
I guess we'd forgotten our place
How we lived
How we survived
How we chose to die
But more or less I knew we'd never get back
I don't know why
You see, you saw me standing on the edge
Senile, a bit surprised
It was my becoming
And the way you built the tension around these walls
God, you were so wrong
Or what purpose drove you
But nothing stands there anymore
Where once the trailer shaded our sleep
Nothing's there but a barren scattered ghost
This isn't the land of opportunity, it's the land of competition.
