When Walter went crazy, she was sitting on the couch

Painting her toenails and drinking a Tab

Matlock on the TV and her mama on the phone

When Walter went crazy, they say that he just snapped

Deafened by the silence and the grinding of the gears

Speeding down the runway with the brake line's cut in two

When Walter went crazy the house went up in flames

He never planned the ending, he just rolled the credit names
G+G E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
The lights came up we all went home, but never quite the same
G+G E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
The lights came up we all went home, but never quite the same

The lights came up we all went home, but never quite the same
