Lyrics: The Remainder

His head was a city
of paper buildings
and the echoes that remained
Old friends and lovers
had features bleeding
together in his brain oh ho ho

Once it starts
its harder to tell them apart

He was always distracted
by the very mention
of an open door oh ho ho

cuz he had sworn
not to be what he had 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 keys
She said she had never envisioned
him the type of person
who could pull off such deceit oh ho ho

oh ho ho

And they carried on like long division
as it was clear with every page oh that they were

from the way
from solutions 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 had sworn not to be what he'd been before
to be the remain remain remain remainder
to be the remain remain remain remainder
to be the remain remain remain remainder
to be the remain remain remain remainder

to be the remain remain remain remainder
to be the remain remain remain remainder
