lyrics

Torn Uniform

"Sorry I'm so disheveled.
It comes from my fear of deportment."
I'm afraid that's how they worded it
on my way outside the door.
A picture framed in the foyer.
It's a relative, somebody's brother.
Reminds me, confused me, or so I thought.

Oh, you know the one.
What did she mean by that comment at the party?
Don't ask!
On my way outside the door.
And I hope it does the same, exactly the same thing to you.
Now let's talk about my arm.
The way I fell and fell and fell on a cobblestone.

I was shoved by a bullyboy.
Bruised face, tore my uniform.
I just fell ...
falling down on a cobblestone.
Bruised face, bullyboy
don't go scuffling your uniform.
Your neighbors ridicule.
You finally rebelled.

Picture framed in the foyer.
It's a relative, somebody's brother (don't ask)
And the sirens speak of her.
And what did she mean by that comment?
