Jane's Tragedy
No one knew that Jane carried a monster
We thought our lives were waterproof when she was around
For 7 lucky years she was my teacher
This year, first in June, her desk was empty
Nobody answered on her phone
When they splashed her oak-tree door, her home looked like stew
Her kids and cat were the ingredients
Headlines hit me like a stone
Here I sit in this café
I feel shocked into my bones
Damn you Jane
" There is no real reason
What' s done is done
My Zoloft-box was empty
May' I felt a kind of down "
No one knew that Jane was a prophet
" Life is sweet but one day when the nightmare comes through
It's gonna kick the daylight out of dreamers "
Jane, there is teardrops in my liquor
Dark clouds will rule the sky tonight
If you hit the road again, I'll pray for your soul
And burn the articles to your protection
Headlines keep me feeling down
Here I sit in this café
Words and lines spinning around
I feel shocked into my bones
'Cause I know there's no reason
What's done is done
May' she felt a kind of down
