Lyrics for Ablutions

She folds her arms up nicely Lays them down Upon the table Wipes her mouth off as she Tries to find another word for love She hangs her skin up by the Window looks to see that all the Doors are open The She sits alone and Wonders where you've gone I counted your lingering I counted time between thunder And lightning I counted into silence, counted chickens, Counted sheep, counted 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7... Upstairs she hears the space Between the words you never said She licks the tiny stone she gave herself And swallows all her worry Won't you leave me forever, won't you leave For good?
