Lyrics:
When I was a little girl
Like really little, like eight or so
I was playing in my father's study
The place in the house I wasn't supposed to go
My father fancied himself a sailor
His study was filled with nautical decor
He kept a boat in a bottle on the top of a shelf
And it shattered on the ground when I slammed the door
I told my mother everything
I told her I was so, so sorry
She told me, "Don't cry
When he comes home tonight
We can make everything okay.
This is all we have to say..."
"We don't remember a boat in a bottle
It must've fallen off its shelf alone
We know you loved it, we're so sad it's broken
But neither one of us was even home"
And it's our word
Yes, our word
It's our word
Yes, our word
Against his
Somebody was paid
To make it go away
Everyone was paid
To make the problems go away
Doesn't matter who gets screwed
Or who is blamed
Do what you need to do to clear your name
And inconvenient truth can be easily erased
When I was 26
I was living in New York
I developed some fun habits
Put my white blood cells to work
I remember it so clearly
I was home alone on a Tuesday night
To level out, I'd popped some downers
But couldn't seem to get my mind right...
I drew a bath and slipped into it
Then suddenly became aware
I couldn't keep my head above water
So took a final gasp of air
And as I laid there helplessly
A million different thoughts came to me
I saw my parents hearing the news
"Your only daughter passed away"
I thought about what they might say
"Our daughter, Judith?
You must be mistaken!
You mean the girl we raised as if our own?
We loved her so much, she felt like our child
But eventually we had to send her home..."
It'd be their word
Only their word
It'd be their word
Only their word
On its own
