A safe position -- a back against the wall
|
A simple shrug to shurg the questions off
|
When there's no action, there's no reaction
|
Curb the dead, avert the consequence
|
So if no one moves, and no one speaks a word
|
We could act OK
|
|
(We must standstill -- we must honor the stalemate)
|
And we must slumber... have we ever been awake?
|
Have we done a thing?
|
When summer's over will we dream of spring?
|
Safety can be disabling
|
A crippled history as an absentee
|
|
A safe position -- turn off the phone
|
Hang the blankets over the windows
|
'Cause if no one's home, then there's no one responsible
|
There's no response for disappointed eyes
|
To see through you -- well, they can't see you anymore
|
|
(We must standstill -- we must honor the stalemate)
|
Until we're pawned off... have we ever been present?
|
Are we too past tense?
|
When summer's over will we face autumn?
|
Safety is disabling
|
A crippled history
|
Crippled history
|
A crippled history...
|
|
Absentee... absentee... You're safe with me
|
Curb the deed, avert the season
|
Absentee... absentee... You're safe with me
|
When summer's over will you dream of your crippled history
|
Crippled history
|
Crippled history
|
Crippled history
|
Absentee... When summer's over will you dream of your crippled history
|
Crippled history
|
Crippled history
|
Crippled history
|
Absentee...
