Lyrics

When you take off your clothes for me
You're half the girl you used to be
And that's alright I must confess
'Cause I can't help but ask for less

And where the body goes must the heart follow?
What seems so full turns out to be as hollow
As your excuse wasn't all you had to swallow
Where the body goes and you're gone

When you shake off your serpent dress
You're telling more but meaning less
'Cause you're too smart to cloud your youth
With anything that could taste like truth

And where the body goes must the heart follow?
What seems so full turns out to be as hollow
As your excuse wasn't all you had to swallow
Where the body goes and you're gone

In a bar at the back of a liquor store
In a strip mall town on a Tuesday night
Do you really wanna hear about my aspirations?
'Cause we're so close to the mystery
What we could be without history
If we only wanted less than what we need

I drop my guard admit I'm beat
With a plastic mask for your trick or treat
I'm holding on to stop this slide
With a lack of conscience as my guide

And where the body goes must the heart follow?
What seems so full turns out to be as hollow
As your excuse wasn't all you had to swallow
Where the body goes and you're gone
