lyrics

She thinks she missed the train to Mars
She's out back counting stars

She's not at work she's not at school she's not in bed
I think I finally broke her
I bring her home everything I want
And nothing that she needs

I thought she'd/you'd be there holding daisies,
She/you always wait(s) for me
She thinks she missed the train to Mars
She's out back counting stars

I found her out back
Sitting naked looking up and looking dead
A crumpled yellow piece of paper
Seven nines and tens
