His head was a city of paper buildings
And the echoes that remained
Were of old friends and lovers
Their features bleeding together in his brain
Once you start, it's harder to tell them apart
He was always distracted
By the very mention of an open door
Because he has sworn not to be what he'd been before
To be a remain, remain, remain, remainder
To be a remain, remain, remain, remainder
The television was snowing softly
As she hunted for her key
She said she never envisioned him
A type of person capable of such deceit
And they carried on like long division
Because it was clear with every page
Oh, that they were farther away
From a solution that would play
Without a remain, remain, remain, remainder
Without a remain, remain, remain, remainder
Without a remain, remain, remain, remainder
Without a remain, remain, remain, remainder
He has sworn not to be what he'd been before
To be a remain, remain, remain, remainder
To be a remain, remain, remain, remainder
To be a remain, remain, remain, remainder
To be a remain, remain, remain, remainder
