Tell Me When
She's all by herself at the end of the day
She'd talk to herself but wouldn't know what to say
Wrings her hands and steps out of the bath
The mirror laughs and splits her in half
She looks around the room
At her carpeted tomb
Threw the phone on the floor
Left the keys in the door
Tell me when does life begin
She got in the car and looked up at the stars
And made a wish
She held her breath and considered death
And in the rearview mirror
She looked back on her reflection
She was a long way from she wanted to be
And a long way from perfection
Tell me when does life begin
She chickened out and she called triple-A
And told them the way
After she paid they fixed the car
She got on her way and she drove past the bar
Where no one bought her a drink at
She always though it was 'cause she was too fat
And now she knows those places blow
Or maybe it was her nose
Tell me when does life begin
Me Diga Quando a Vida Começa
Ela está sozinha no final do dia
Fala com ela mesma, mas não sabe o que dizer
Torcendo as mãos, sai do banho
O espelho ri e a corta ao meio
Ela olha ao redor do quarto
No seu túmulo de carpete
Jogou o telefone no chão
Deixou a chave na porta
Me diga quando a vida começa
Ela entrou no carro e olhou para as estrelas
E fez um pedido
Prendeu a respiração e pensou na morte
E no retrovisor
Olhou de volta para seu reflexo
Estava longe de onde queria estar
E longe da perfeição
Me diga quando a vida começa
Ela ficou com medo e ligou para o guincho
E contou o que aconteceu
Depois que pagou, consertaram o carro
Ela seguiu em frente e passou pelo bar
Onde ninguém comprou uma bebida pra ela
Ela sempre achou que era porque era gorda demais
E agora sabe que esses lugares são uma droga
Ou talvez fosse o nariz dela
Me diga quando a vida começa
