She probably still keeps herself inside herself Her head it ruled her heart with a tune Ill never hear Summer, like self-portraits we were hit or miss Never the same hues twice The second layers applied before the first ones were even rendered I guess her walls still high and wide With the writing on the inside Its meanings reapplied to whos in fashion Chorus Times a perfect crime for a mystery girl The veil distorts the rhyme for a mystery girl Somewhere tonight a lonely shadows painting in the rain And most of what is captured will be in vain You try to keep away the dogs of memory The hungry and the restless ones just come at different angles A cigarette at midnight in a slow, dark room And theyre scratchin at your door The corner of your mind you pared to eloquence now rambles And the rain sounds like a freight train Dont it always come the same When your hunger meets the pain of her resilience Chorus I guess her walls still high and wide With the writing on the inside Its meanings reapplied to whos in fashion Chorus
