| 作曲 : Pompeii | |
| Open-ended, parting on a note | |
| it never rang and barely ever spoke to | |
| anyone baring the slightest peace of mind, | |
| cause if it did, there'd be no fingerprints to find | |
| or forget. dont' have the money and you know it'd be well spent, | |
| keeping tabs on whichever family tree, ready to furnish an identity | |
| because | |
| Relative is relative, | |
| relative's not relevant in my case | |
| and my case is | |
| not closed and open to interpretation or a point of view | |
| you can guess you can't know | |
| that foreign stays foreign till found | |
| mother, what's in a name? more than that, | |
| why can't mine be found? | |
| i'm sick of home, it's just a contest now, | |
| where how can i top or put you down in your place | |
| because | |
| Relative is relative and relative's not relevant in my case | |
| and my case is | |
| not closed and open to | |
| interpretation or a point of view | |
| you can guess, you can't know | |
| that foreign stays foreign till found. | |
| and if all else fails, i can take that flight to the town i was born, where you still might be staying | |
| laying low and saving face. | |
| think it goes without saying, this goes without saying | |
| at least, i tried. |
