lyrics

Tearing up the concrete to remove the prints
Of a tiny set of hands that were a tiny set of twins
Cement has a memory that flesh could only wish
But sometimes a sledge needs to loose its grasp
On the empirical data that informs the past
Past by which the present is harassed
But once they're gone they stay that way
And perhaps she didn't kill them, maybe she just gave them away
She won't speak to the neighbors so it's a guessing game they play
Where did they go?
I saw them the last week
Why does she look so sad?
Why is she now so meek?
There was a man poking around the week before
He came at odd hours hammering his fist against their darkened door
He could have been the father
But no one knows for sure
They never came out alone again after that night
When they did they were holding each others hand so tight
That the circulation was cut off leaving their fingers paper white
Where did they go?
I saw them the last week
Why does she look so sad?
Why is she now so meek?
