A Widow with a Terrible Secret

We gave her the room
The rest of us stood up on the roof
And looked up at the moon
Be grateful, be careful
The things that you say
End up speaking for you
We all know you’re going away
Give us a choice, or give us a name
Dangerous for you outside
Run on home to the south side
We’ve been on you for some time
When you look back
Don’t expect to see us there
Atomic played through the walls
Stuck in sheets
The pages of history will all forget
The times we couldn’t sleep
The spaces in between
I feel next to me
We all know you’re going away
Give us a choice, or give us a name
Dangerous for you outside
Run on home to the south side
We’ve been on you for some time
When you look back
Don’t expect to see us there
