[Verse 1]
Like some sepulchral tableau
I sit frozen holding your hand
Though I’m trying to think only
Positive thoughts I understand
That this tomorrow
May not be the tomorrow that
Your eviscerating suffering will end
Oh, will you ever be yourself again?
[Chorus 1]
Girl with the flu, I hear the death rheum
She ain’t doin' well
Her eyes they seem cast and fatherless
Her psyche's cracked or, anyhow
She ain't speakin' now
[Verse 2]
Nightfall, like some leaden sea
Dilates as I hold vigil by your bed
Watching the pillowcase soaking with sweat around your head
I can't repel this sneaking veil of morbidity
That's disfiguring the seraph of your face
Oh, the organism's been debased
Like some sepulchral tableau
I sit frozen holding your hand
Though I’m trying to think only
Positive thoughts I understand
That this tomorrow
May not be the tomorrow that
Your eviscerating suffering will end
Oh, will you ever be yourself again?
[Chorus 1]
Girl with the flu, I hear the death rheum
She ain’t doin' well
Her eyes they seem cast and fatherless
Her psyche's cracked or, anyhow
She ain't speakin' now
[Verse 2]
Nightfall, like some leaden sea
Dilates as I hold vigil by your bed
Watching the pillowcase soaking with sweat around your head
I can't repel this sneaking veil of morbidity
That's disfiguring the seraph of your face
Oh, the organism's been debased
