La Casa Chica - Who Were They?

Who was she?
Who were they?
Where'd you sleep at night?
For 30 years you had two homes and lived two separate lives
I think of you
Driving home twice a night
Was it pride, shame, or other Catholic games?

Time has a noisy engine
I try my best to ignore
But how long will it take to forget this?
The echoes will not die in me

I was born to the night
The dim light watched me grow
Something always felt wrong but I'd never let it show
Sunlight fading
Our love growing
Growing

You lied to me
By making me fear the truth I learned to love the darkness
Of not knowing

And every time you said to me the future couldn't touch us
I fell asleep into your arms like words could not be broken
You stopped the clock for all of us
And we were frozen waiting there like statues of you

How long have I been waiting here for you?
Like a dog
Next to its dead owner
How long have I been waiting here for you?
Like a dog
Strangled at the throat
But you had other plans
You had nothing planned
You

Time has a noisy engine
I try my best to ignore
But how long will it take to forget this?
The echoes will not die in me

When its time to sleep and I can sift between the memories of you
The body's weak, the eyes will fade, but nothing brings me peace
