lyrics

DEBRIS - SKINNY ALLEY / ESCAPE THE ROAR / 2003 / Virgin Records

Helene lay down with a stranger on her last night
In that beautiful town, it felt so right
He had an air dark and mysterious
He had something else infinitely more serious
He never told her
She went back home to Paris feeling gorgeously rested
When a minor infection, had to get her blood tested
The doctor called her into his office and he said
Ma chere, you are HIV positive
No one to hold her

When the walls come tumbling down
When the walls come crumbling down
See the pieces of your life
Lying scattered shattered on the ground

You know, Joshua loved his lady like anything
He worked so hard to give her what she wanted
He took her on a vacation to the island
Where she met a rich man and said "Josh,
I'm not coming home with you"
There was nothing he could do

Chorus

There's one thing they don't teach
At any university
It's how to deal with
Debris
