The Fair Estate lyrics
Song information
Artist: Desa Album: Arriving Alive
Lyrics
Within the fair estate Beyond the locked cast iron gate Tenth bedroom on the left Second floor Daughter has just locked the door She digs in her purse for the vial
Within the fair estate Beside the pristine china vase As mother's cold eyes scan the room Perfect, white Not a speck of dust in sight She's startled by the stereo upstairs
A daughter's heart racing toward a flatline with no brakes Toward a glow-white e.r. to match the mansion Fashionably sterilized staring eyes close
Within the fair estate Doctor's attention came too late to stop the amphetamines Mother's love for the girl Or lack thereof Had curled its icy fingers around her throat Where were you when I needed you?
Within the fair estate Beside the most luxurious grave Mother's eyes are melting ice Above the moon warns it will be winter soon Burying her engraved name in snow
