Black Marble Collene
[Verse 1]
Hear me knocking on your window slow
Don't turn around to go
I hear your doubt
I'll reply with the sins of our whole town
[Verse 2]
Your hesitation's only natural
In my younger days, I built a wall
Hiding from the favored sons outside the union hall
Don't you know they had it all?
[Chorus 1]
The Diltmores are dead
All the Diltmores are dead
My memory's a mess
The millionaires are not impressed
You and I will make up all the rest
[Verse 3]
A stone creation never seemed so low
Don't ask me why... I don't know
Going down, you reply
"Your camera hit me right between my eyes."
[Verse 4]
Your insecurity seems natural
In my younger days, I knew it all
Standing tall in the bathroom stall
I had the non-believers where I want
Always holding on
[Chorus 2]
The Diltmores are dead
All the Diltmores are dead
My memory's a mess
All the Diltmores are dead
[Interlude]
Eating alone, what's the conversation?
Everyone knows about what you said
Sitting at home, what's the conversation?
Everyone knows why you're stuck in bed
[Verse 1]
Hear me knocking on your window slow
Don't turn around to go
I hear your doubt
I'll reply with the sins of our whole town
