Eureka Birds - Oh! My Dear lyrics

There's an unexplained creaking underneath my floorboards And if you listen close you can hear the most haunting sound Listless days trickle away in school Across the room without a clue I see you To her I never seemed much To me she was a dream what horrible luck had I Our eyes would never meet Her cries were of defeat They crept up my spine Oh my dear I sent her off! Oh my dear she's down down In later years I built my home here To rest beside familiar ground away But oh! the crackles and the moans Up and down my bones I can't undo them And now I'm losing sleep The creaking underneath it makes me shiver Oh my dear I cut her up! Oh my dear she's down down
