Stradivarius by Turtlenecked Lyrics

When we pass a graveyard
You'd ask without fail
"How many people do you think are dead...
"All of them, I know. In my teeth it shows.."

You put these goddamn strings in my hand
I'm sorry for breaking my violent [?]
I wanted to whisper a thank you into the corner of my shadowed room
Pardoned from your birth
You try to give me softer

You flew overhead
Screamed like a jet engine when I was just a kid
Look, the sky is just the same
It's quiet now. You just don't need a plane
Reading to me, Huckleberry

Singing you to sleep as the sun set on the carpet
Now I'm sleeping with the television on
Singing you to sleep as the sun set on the carpet
Now I'm sleeping with the television on
