The fall that comes after I fall away
When you pretend I never made every effort to stay
Who else will you love just to alienate?
From behind the counters
Of the Café Renae
Tavern nights let you smoke away your hopeful choice
Paving a saddened road, tarring what was a sing voice
Burning, like a witness to your travesty, me and your other joys
You run knowingly
To the Café Renae
Disgusting regret of choices made
At the Café Renae
Bitter hands and a happy face
At the Café Renae
Café Renae, Café Renae
Soon her fateful shoe will slip on your foot
Just like you never thought it would
And all that was all well and good
Sinks in a familiar way
Behind the Café Renae
And before long your daughter will be daunted
With the burden of being what you never wanted
And she'll siren with the voice you once flaunted
Smoking herself all the merry way
To the Café Renae
Disgusting regret of choices made
At the Café Renae
Bitter hands and a happy face
At the Café Renae
Café Renae, Café Renae
