A Lonely Kitchen

A LONELY KITCHEN Everyone here has something to hide You can see it in their eyes We’re all entertained at a party of lies And I am singing loud The ones on the porch are all catching fire The ones in the ice like to drown The nervous ones watch all around The bathroom keeps them wide awake There isn’t a care with the doors locked The windows are smoked by the spoon All those on the roof with the stars and the moon Say they’re never coming down The ones in the bedroom say they’re in love Those on the couch just don’t care The kitchen wishes it wasn’t there But it’s just a kitchen Everyone here has someone they’ve found You can see it in their eyes My only voice are my sighs And I am singing loud
