lyrics

You said it's all
all water under the bridge
all water under the bridge

Mary is alive and well
in the marionettes of Mexico
carrying stories she'll never tell
cider-ridden, sorry to the bone

Please, please, please, please
don't believe me when I cross my heart
don't imagine that I carried your words
and carved them into a finer art

You said it's all
all water under the bridge
all water under the bridge

Windsor-tied and glassy-eyed
mark the cadence where we stand
where it wasn't enough to save ourselves
where we're small

Please, please, deceive me
all I want is to hate your mouth
sanctuary in opaque, fake spite
until I've learned how to phase you out

And it's all
all water under
all water under
follow any close direction
show your shoulders, own your gestures
water under
water under the bridge
