Phantogram

Phantogram is an American Indie pop duo from Saratoga Springs, New York, formed in 2007 and consisting of Josh Carter (vocals, guitars) and Sarah Barthel (vocals, keyboards). They write and record in a remote barn in upstate New York called Harmony Lodge. The band name was partially inspired by an optical illusion called a phantogram, in which two-dimensional images appear to be three-dimensional. more »

Wednesday morning at five o'clock 
As the day begins 
Silently closing her bedroom door 
Leaving the note that she hoped would say more 

She goes downstairs to the kitchen 
Clutching her handkerchief 
Quietly turning the backdoor key 
Stepping outside, she is free 

She(we gave her most of our lives) 
Is leaving (sacrificed most of our lives) 
Home (we gave her everything money could buy) 
She's leaving home, after living alone, for so many years (bye bye) 

Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown 
Picks up the letter that's lying there 
Standing alone at the top of the stairs 
She breaks down and cries to her husband 
"Daddy, our baby's gone. 
"Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly? 
How could she do this to me?" 

She (we never thought of ourselves) 
Is leaving (never a thought for ourselves) 
Home (we struggled hard all our lives to get by) 
She's leaving home, after living alone, for so many years 

Friday morning, at nine o'clock 
She is far away 
Waiting to keep the appointment she made 
Meeting a man from the Motortrade 

She (what did we do that was wrong) 
Is Having (we didn't know it was wrong) 
Fun (fun is the one thing that money can't buy) 

Something inside, that was always denied, for so many years
She's leaving home, bye, bye.
