[intro] [Drop] [Verse 1] Plastic chairs Chalk dust Hair ribbons on the door Phone calls cut Mid‑laugh Shoes lined on the corridor You counted heads They counted targets Said it was a “mistake” You buried books Beneath the rubble Called it “collateral break” [Chorus] One girl was a poem Another was a prayer Hundredandsixtifive dead girls And you say there’s nothing there You hide the blood in briefing notes Change the numbers more and more But Hundredandsixtifive dead girls Keep writing names On your floor (hey) [Interlude] [Verse 2] Mothers in the street Holding uniforms and grief A cracked blue backpack Spilling pens across the heat You send your spokesmen Polished phrases “deep regret ” “we’ll check the facts” We send their pictures Taped on walls You send soldiers with their stacks [Chorus] One girl was a promise Another learned to swear Hundredandsixtifive dead girls And you say there’s nothing there You hide the smoke in language games Shuffle papers Close the door But Hundredandsixtifive dead girls Keep writing names On your floor [Drop] [Solo] [Drop] [Bridge] Count the cracks On every desk Count the lies Behind your mask Count the desks That stay unfilled Tell me How many children Does it take To call it killed [Break] [Chorus] One girl was your future Another was my heir Hundredandsixtifive dead girls And you say there’s nothing there You drown the screams in static talk But they’re louder than before ’Cause Hundredandsixtifive dead girls Keep writing names Keep writing names On your floor (oh) Hundredandsixtifive dead girls You’ll step in them Forever more [Outro] [End]
