Song Lyrics

The world is full of missing girls
Geraldine, Janes and Ophelias
Who go for a walk and then don't come back

Say I'll be okay, just not today
Nothing is wrong
Nothing is right

The funeral cortege pulls out of the street
There's nobody home and we're more alone
She wanted to see everything there is

I hope that she did
Beautiful kid
Nothing is wrong
Nothing is right

Don't feed the rats
Don't let them in
They're never too rich
They're never too thin

She thought she could steal flowers from the spring
For when she walked, she used to sing

Nothing is wrong
But now nothing is right
Nothing, nothing, nothing
