lyrics

How come I’m painting cardboard boxes blue
How come i’m peeling vegetables for two like you did like you did
How come i’m feeling like i don’t exist
How come i’m poking at the boiling cyst on your leg on your leg

And I wonder what the cost is of your trust your trust
And i wonder what the cost is of your trust your trust

Home come i’m cutting up old brown lamp shades
How come i’m sleeping in for days and days anymore anymore
How come the earth keeps spinning round and round
If not to spin us back into the ground even the score even the score

And i wonder what the cost is of your trust your trust
And i wonder what the cost it of your trust your trust

And i wonder what the cost it of your trust your trust
And i wonder if you’d save me a seat on the bus the bus
Or I wonder if you’d just leave me in the dust
