Softy

Feels so cold out here
Sometimes it seems I'm arriving as somebody else
There's a drip like a ghost rhythm
If you're quiet, I'm certain you'll hear it yourself

And don't disappear, darling
These are days where I'm waiting and wondering 'bout what happens next
I got time and it's freely given
All those curious thoughts that collect on the shelf

There's a boy who stalks these halls, he never leaves
And when he talks, he talks a lot, always bungles things
There's a man who runs the show, you'll never see
And where he walks all our breathing stops, how he quiets things

But no further
No further
No further
No further

It's the hard and steel weather
Do you break by the hammer or ring like a bell?
In a fit, in a soft racket
All those lines are just words that were spoken by somebody else

And boy, you stalk these halls, you never leave
And when you talk, you talk a lot, though you bungle things
There's a man who runs the show, you'll never see
And where he walks how our breathing stops, how he quiets things

I just don't know what you want from me
Someone to know you
Just someone to know you
I try, but I just have to know everything
Someone to see you
Just someone to see you
Oh, I just don't know what you want from me
Someone to know you
Just someone to know you, ahh

No further
No further
No further
No further

No further
No further
No further
No further
