Lyrics
(Intro)
(Verse) I have nothing new to tell you
Since the last time that I wrote
But I know with certainty that
Your hands will get this notes
(Verse) I don’t need any mirrors in the hallway
To remind me how I’m feeling today
I don’t want any lights in my house
Turn them off put them down throw them out
(Chorus) I read, I read
A yellow shirt
And a blue jacket
(Verse) I learned for the first time today
A red flag means that I’ll be ok
You get up when I go sleep but
That’s just me and geography
(Verse) (I swear you stole my sleep for
At least four whole goddamn weeks and
I swear when next we meet, well,
I will not let you sleep)
(Chorus) I read, I read
A yellow shirt
And a blue jacket
(Outro) Dressed so sharply
You know I will read
