Fingers Fall Lyrics - Ass Ponys

Doctor, doctor, where's the doctor 

Wringing wet the woman hollers 

Bandage wrapped around her hand 

Collapses as they run to help her 

Help her up and offer water 

Did somebody call the doctor 

Loud machines so foreign to her 

Sent her splashing red against the wall 

As her fingers fall 

In the back a black piano 

Sits in silence what do we know 

Of it's past and of a time 

And of the place it occupied 

In the parlor with the daughter 

Playing for her drunken father 

Listening until he cried 

You hear it echo out into the hall 

As her fingers fall 

In a bra and underwear 

She's balanced now upon a chair 

A letter written, tucked inside 

A paperback, the rope is tied 

Around her neck and through the rafters 

This is it. she'll show the bastards 

Everything she said was true 

And now she'll be the envy of them all 

As her fingers fall
