Let Me In

Some nights you get so quiet
I can't hear what you're thinking anymore
You've blocked me out while I'm still boxed in
And there ain't no way to even your score
I'll ask you again
Dear, let me in!

Don't Touch the Water

Don't touch the water
There's blood in the water
There's spirits in the water and they've seen what we've done

Come with me
We could take a bus ride to the moon
On this boring afternoon

What Simon Says
03:20
|
|

|
Feels like it has snowed for days
Walking through the blinding maze
What should we do to offset this malaise
Follow the footprints in the snow
To whom do these footprints go?
One says wait, we can hunt the thing
The other says it's in our heads
But what Simon says...

Chicago

I've been asking for some time
If you would go for a ride with me
Just a little Sunday drive
But if you take this little trip
It might take your whole life to sit
Your whole life just to notice it
The Beauty that our lives admit
Let's drive to Chicago
No one would know our face
We could stay at your dad's place
Act like midnight fools
Let's leave on the morrow
We've got no need to wait
Or sell our clothes to the state
We wouldn't have to rhyme
We'd let their watches all unwind
Let's go for a drive
To find the locus where our lives combine

|

|
Pencils and ribbon, sticks and small shells
Rain on a tin roof and old golden bells
The fast paced modernity may rule you as King
But who doesn't still love the old, simple things

Which One?

You Have to Knock
04:48
|
|

|
God where have you gone?
Your silence lingers on
I am hanging by a strand
And all else is sinking sand
Father, protect what is yours
Your name is great, your hand is sure
Give us this day your daily bread
So we might find your way instead
Father please forgive our sins
As we do try to make amends
And lead us not into the place
Where shadows would obscure your face
Ask and you shall find
(Who when asked for a loaf of bread,
Gives a stone to his child instead)
If you need peace of mind
(Who would give a scorpion
To his beloved son)
If you want to break the lock
(The father reaches for the child
Parting the storm to seek the mild)
First you have to knock
(The door will open if you knock
you knock you knock...)

I've half a mind to know I should what I could be
But I know I would be what I could,
Should I be what I shouldn't.
