The medicine jars are empty
And sit on the windowsill
The ones that hurt you plenty
The ones that give the orders still
And all the familiar faces
That grin when they let you down
Are lined up on the counter
Have come to rest down on the ground
And there, silent asleep
You have all that you need
Safe and sound
If all of the locks are broken
Then someone should watch the gate
The treasures in the open
For anyone that cares to take
Another trip to the water
nobody takes a drink
We sailed a ship of silver
Just to watch it sink away
Why when you close your eyes
Does it seem the easiest
Mine only for a time
Nothing's gonna stay
