Caroline knows how fragile we are
With hope as our faith, we look to the stars
Caroline's monkey is crying again
There's no satisfaction on Caroline's train
Caroline leaks through holes in her skin
Her promise of sweetness, forgiveness and everything
Caroline's monkey coos in her ear
Drives like a demon through Caroline's tears
Caroline feels the ice in her veins
The minutes and hours, the naming of days
Caroline said her dream never ends
For Caroline's monkey and Caroline's friends
Fading's better than failing
Falling's better than feeling
Folding's better than losing
Fixing's better than healing, sometimes
Caroline's monkey claws at her back
Colder than winter, darker than black
Caroline's monkey is hungry again
Running with scissors on needles and pins
Caroline's monkey lives where she lays
Sleeps like a thief and steals through the days
Caroline's monkey makes up all the fun
Leaves chaos and ruin on Caroline's tongue
Caroline knows how fragile we are
With hope as our faith, we look to the stars
Caroline's monkey is crying again
There's no satisfaction on Caroline's train
Fading's better than failing
Falling's better than feeling
Folding's better than losing
Fixing's better than healing, sometimes
