southern woods cult - green eyes lyrics

welcome home
your friends would never come to say
sentimental words
left beside your grave

green eyes
a new perspective
but what’s it mean when all the colors cease to change
green eyes
i don’t think it’s improper
to say they hope they were the last ones on your mind

(tooti)
friend, oh friend, this is the end
the game is over now, yеt i still pretend
that you’ll climb out your resting placе and we could go home
the days stop passing when i think of you
our talk beside the garden, an eternal loop
the way you talked me down when all the words had been lost

so i’m sorry
i’m not sticking around
there’s no hope without you in this town

that night when we were only twelve
you came over, crying, you weren’t yourself
and every other word you uttered turned into a sob
it feels like it was yesterday
your mother was sick, so you came to stay
as close as we became, this cruel world takes what it wants
(tooti {swc backing chorus})
so i’m sorry
maybe one day you’ll be found
i can’t watch them when they lay you down

green eyes
a new perspective
but what’s it mean when all the colors cease to change
green eyes
i don’t think it’s improper
to say they hope they were the last ones on your mind

green eyes shed no tears
brood walks up to her old stairs
not the old stairs, but the old old stairs
door paint peeling
tint matches her eyes
maybe that’s just the way that a soul dies
door’s unlocked, why wouldn’t it be
no one but her lives on this street

and i bet you feel guilty after all this
and i bet you think she keeps her hate on her lips

brood walks in to a dusty hallway
several year ash drifting from the chimney
all doors open, no more secrets
“that’d be the day,” thinks the hopeless spirit
realization hits her quickly
everything’s a mess, this house is empty
and she runs through the house with a fl!ckering hope
in the bedroom, her mother is found with a rope
they stare at each other, and one starts to cry
the other one thinks that she still must have died
but gracie knows how it all ends all the same
she knows why her child has come all this way

she pulls out a note with an all too familiar symbol, it seems
somehow, julia’s mother had known what it is that she saw in her dreams
but it’s no news to her, the young woman would try to bring her mom down safe
then she’d look on in horror as wood hit the ground and she screams out the name

(julia) green eyes
a new perspective
but what’s it mean when all the colors cease to change?
(julia) green eyes
i don’t think it’s improper
to say they hope they were the last ones on your mind

the note said it lies at the natural bridge
the very last statement her mother would give

she burnt down the house, then headed back north
one more obstacle left in the course

supplies she had left by mistake at her house
before she found home in a place further out
julia takes off the mask, brood is dead
maybe those extra steps are in her head

i don’t know what it means! it’s just scribbles on paper, but they’re in my head!… someone’s here
