When They Threw You Away
First day in, eyes darting
Let's get to when, let's get to smarting
The bell rings, the seas are parting
You're in the middle, the sifting's starting
Look for patterns, watch the time
Look for matches, pray for signs
Grab at anything that does not mind
They slap your hand, you cannot climb
When they threw you away, I wonder what they thought you were
When they threw you away
When they threw you away
So hectic, down is up
Antiseptic, the empty cup
The world was wet and was opening, but
There was no room, they beamed you up
When they threw you away, I wonder what they thought you were
I wonder what they thought
When they threw you away, I wonder what they thought you were
When they threw you away
When they threw you away
When they threw you away
When they threw you away
You're on your knees, I am, too
You're in the chapel, I'm in the 'loo
Neither one of us knows what to do,
But we still believe it matters
You let them say what was on their minds
Number one, easy to find
Some piece of paper that some dead men signed
To protect idle chatter
When they threw you away, I wonder what they thought you were
I wonder what they thought
When they threw you away, I wonder what they thought you were
I wonder what they thought
When they threw you away, I wonder what they thought you were
I wonder what they thought when they threw you away
When they threw you away
When they threw you away
When they threw you away
Let's get to when, let's get to smarting
The bell rings, the seas are parting
You're in the middle, the sifting's starting
Look for patterns, watch the time
Look for matches, pray for signs
Grab at anything that does not mind
They slap your hand, you cannot climb
When they threw you away, I wonder what they thought you were
When they threw you away
When they threw you away
So hectic, down is up
Antiseptic, the empty cup
The world was wet and was opening, but
There was no room, they beamed you up
When they threw you away, I wonder what they thought you were
I wonder what they thought
When they threw you away, I wonder what they thought you were
When they threw you away
When they threw you away
When they threw you away
When they threw you away
You're on your knees, I am, too
You're in the chapel, I'm in the 'loo
Neither one of us knows what to do,
But we still believe it matters
You let them say what was on their minds
Number one, easy to find
Some piece of paper that some dead men signed
To protect idle chatter
When they threw you away, I wonder what they thought you were
I wonder what they thought
When they threw you away, I wonder what they thought you were
I wonder what they thought
When they threw you away, I wonder what they thought you were
I wonder what they thought when they threw you away
When they threw you away
When they threw you away
When they threw you away
