The flowers stopped blooming, the colors turned grey The laughter went silent and faded away No mothers, no sisters, no lovers remain Just echoes of footsteps drowned out by the rainThe streets are all quiet, the mirrors don’t lie There’s no warmth in the sunrise, just cold in the sky They carried the balance, the song and the soul Now time ticks in ruins, a half of us stole All of the women in society are fucking dead forever there will never be another woman never The world feels so hollow, like a house made of bone Since all of the women left me alone No comfort, no wisdom, no hands left to hold No hearts full of mercy to soften the cold We built up our towers, we tore down the trees But forgot that love was the breath in the breeze I search through the silence, I beg to the air For just one more voice, for someone to care But statues don’t answer and memories fade And none of this gold can undo what we’ve made All of the women in society are fucking dead forever there will never be another woman never The world feels so hollow, like a house made of bone Since all of the women left me alone The streets don’t smell like perfume anymore, Just gasoline and rust on the drugstore door. The female mannequins stare with their hollow eyes, Like they’re waiting for someone who won’t arrive. The jukebox still plays our old wedding song, But the melody’s broken, the words all wrong. I pour out two drinks, but I drink them alone, Toast to the ghosts in this silent home. All of the women in society are fucking dead forever there will never be another woman never The world feels so hollow, like a house made of bone Since all of the women left me alone The preacher still shouts from his pulpit of dust, About Eve and the apple and God’s broken trust. But the pews are all empty, the bibles are shut, ‘Cause you can’t damn a soul when there’s no one left to judge. I heard a child laugh in a dream last night, But the crib’s been still, that ain't right The future’s a museum with no one to see, Just statues of mothers that used to be. All of the women in society are fucking dead forever there will never be another woman never The world feels so hollow, like a house made of bone Since all of the women left me alone They’ll dig up our bones in a thousand years, Wonder why all the women just disappeared. But the wind won’t answer, the sky won’t cry, It’s just men and the dust, waiting to die. |
