| There’s a sound of a rhythm that began and came and went
|
| There’s a spirit that’s escaping from my basement
|
| As above, so below
|
| First house around the corner
|
| She says, «I wish it were warmer, so I don’t have to keep track of my coat.»
|
| And if you haven’t heard by now, I’m sure you just forgot to try how
|
| And if you haven’t heard by now, I’m sure you just forgot to get out
|
| Armed with one flashlight and a bag of wine
|
| I’ll leave this night to find it’s own way out
|
| Out of this desperation
|
| Out of these walls we’re raising that never keep: they just surround
|
| And the more I try, they grow twice as high
|
| I could never talk them down
|
| And if you haven’t heard by now, I’m sure you just forgot to try how
|
| And if you haven’t heard by now, I’m sure you just forgot to get out
|
| I’m turning lead into gold
|
| Write this down, count me out
|
| I can’t perceive
|
| I can’t predict the storms I haven’t suffered yet
|
| How many stones should I throw into this well
|
| Before I can walk across this well’s mouth?
|
| You said it was a noble cause:
|
| I ran into a lion’s jaws—
|
| A journey I wish never saw it’s start
|
| I stumbled over teeth and tongue
|
| I waved goodbye to everyone
|
| I went to pitch a tent inside it’s heart |
