What ghosts exist behind thses attic walls?

There's got to be a simpler explanation,

'cause i scrimped and i saved just to find that they've been splicing my inventions.

Cold skin and bones and this latitude... we ain't payin' until the heat comes through.

So you slept in a stocking cap and wool scarf.

Promises of payment were upon your shoulders constantly,

But don't forget to entertain 'cause this is your first defense.

A four-year offense to the devoted type.

I may have got an invitation but i wasn't invited.

But i thought that this meant something more than broken hearts and new addictions.

We'll leave our sins within the carpet twine.

Our bodies will dissolve the chemicals in due time.
