His head was a city of paper buildings
and the echoes that remained
Of old friends and lovers,
their features bleeding together in his brain
Once it starts, it's harder to tell them apart
He was always distracted
by the very mention of an open door
'Cause 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
'cause it was clear with every page
Oh, that they were farther away
from the solution that would play
Out the remain, remain, remain remainder
Out the remain, remain, remain remainder
Out the remain, remain, remain remainder
Out the 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
