Redocorate

[00:02.03] There was a wonderful structure to the city

[00:05.27] And it put my cares to rest

[00:17.27] Taking inventory of his life

[00:31.27] Seeing snapshots chronologically in line

[00:34.01] Something told him he should look around and tidy up

[00:37.01] He collected many things but never quite enough

[00:40.02] Tried looking at it from a new perspective

[00:42.76] Flat on his back but he still heard the directive

[00:46.02] Orders from that corner where that shadow always lived

[00:48.51] Never asked permissions he just hopes that they forgive

[00:51.51] I don't want to go like this

[00:54.52] At least let me clean my room

[00:57.26] I don't want to leave like this

[01:00.53] 'Cause the last thing I want to do is

[01:04.27] Make my people make decisions

[01:07.01] Wondering what to do, oh

[01:09.76] Should they keep it on display

[01:13.26] Or redecorate?

[01:15.75] Blankets over mirrors, she tends to like it

[01:17.76] She's not afraid of her reflection

[01:19.76] But of what she might see behind it

[01:21.51] She had plans to change her name

[01:24.27] Just not the traditional way

[01:27.26] Haunted by a couple big mistakes

[01:29.51] She covers all the dents with the way she decorates

[01:32.26] Then one night she got cold with no blankets on her bed

[01:35.26] So she ripped them off the mirror, stepped back and she said

[01:38.27] I don't want to go like this

[01:41.00] At least let me clean my room

[01:44.01] I don't want to leave like this

[01:46.76] 'Cause the last thing I want to do is

[01:50.50] Make my people make decisions

[01:53.26] Wondering what to do, oh

[01:56.26] Should they keep it on display

[01:59.75] Or redecorate?

[02:13.77] With the bells and the whistles scaled back

[02:20.00] Like an isolated track

[02:20.50] And he feels trapped when he's not inebriated

[02:23.50] Fair to say he's fairly sedated most days of the week

[02:24.25] He might have made it if he lived on a different street

[02:25.74] I repeat, scaled back and isolated

[02:27.50] He says he likes an open schedule but he mostly hates it

[02:30.51] If you're running to his room, take a breath before you break-in

[02:33.26] Put your ear up to the door, tell me can you hear him saying?

[02:36.26] I don't want to go like this

[02:39.25] At least let me clean my room

[02:42.25] I don't want to leave like this

[02:45.01] 'Cause the last thing I want to do is

[02:48.75] Make my people make decisions

[02:51.50] Wondering what to do, oh

[02:54.49] Should they keep it on display

[02:57.74] Or redecorate?

[02:59.99] I don't want to go like this (go like this)

[03:02.75] At least let me clean my room (clean my room)

[03:05.50] I don't want to leave like this (leave like this)

[03:08.25] 'Cause the last thing I want to do is (to do is)

[03:12.00] Make my people make decisions

[03:15.00] Wondering what to do, oh

[03:17.75] Should they keep it on display (on display)

[03:21.00] Or redecorate?

[03:33.49] Or redecorate?

[03:45.50] Or redecorate?
