[Verse 1]
             
I have mapped

and drawers
            
Tracked the le

Happy to be ho

me, safe and w

As shadows by

Quietly eating

[Verse 2]
            
So here’s wher

If I can find 

    
someone to sta

Till then I dr

       
eam of the day

 my odds and e

I’ll wake up, 

            
there’ll be fo

And never want

 for more

[Chorus]
            
Is there chees

 beyond?
          
Rinds of parme

[Verse 3]
             
One night one 

      
flung light th

So I run for c

Little heart r

I think it saw

     
 my face, okay

One hungry day is nothing, come what may

[Verse 4]
            
But then winte

       
r came inside 

for three nigh

Left me grindi

Curled up, kep

[Bridge A]

Spring bloomed

 in the kitche

n again
     
So I crawled o

ut of the wall

 and squinting
            
Saw hope on th

              
e stovetop jus

       
t like I’d alw

ays imagined i

t
            
More than I co

            
uld eat, my dr

             
eams were fina

      
lly reality
            
My struggles h

              
ad a happy end

            
ing, they must

              
 want to be fr

  
iends!
             
My stomach sta

        
rts to turn, w

ith thirst, wh

y does it hurt

?

My just desser

t is served ag

ain.

[Bridge B]
            
And so I stumb

   
le back to bed
          
Something’s no

             
t quite right.

             
 Guess I’ll ju

            
st go rest my 


head
            
Now as I lay m

            
e down to slee


p
           
I expect no dr

              
eams, and no s

           
weet goodbye t

  
o me
            
Flatline in th

   
e morning ligh

t.
           
   I held on s

             
o tight for so

  
 long
            
It’s just not 

           
right, let a s

      
igh out as I c

        
lose my eyes.
            
Was that all t

     
here was to th

is?
            
What’s for the

  
 best?

[Chorus]
            
Is there chees

          
e in the great

 beyond?
          
What’s the moo

             
n made of? Mee

             
t me there aft

       
er I’m gone
            
Life gets shor

            
ter, teeth gro

      
w long
            
Mind me not an

             
d I’ll mind my

         
 own, and my m

ind
            
Held the same 

       
light as the o

         
ne in your eye

s.

[Outro]
            
Do I belong in

  
 “right and wr

ong?”
            
One dies alone

      
? And why? Don

’t know.
   
Goodbye. So lo

ng.
   
To mice in hol

es.
