lyrics

wandering the house and through the garden
i am caught i hear a whisper
quietly the voices of the children of the family gone away
we spent so many years shouting on the phone
creating all these whispers
no excuses, no remorse
for the scars we never made

give me your hand
i am absolutely at your mercy
dragging down the hallways
this house has turned the page
but i am lost and the eyes
have all gone blind
the letter and the spirit of the law
is bowing to the crime
and i can't see no signs
i tell you, i am dying

you must be longing for the grave
you must be lonely
you must be longing to be saved
from the cold winds blowing

you take away the light and all the blond hair
and the make-up and the magic
he may be our man in orbit
but he's not doing much for me
why would he climb into a shell?
and be wired to a tree?
all the pain and all the sorrow just for you and me?
and he's still there...minding a house
that i could never leave
they say 'just believe..'

you must be longing for the grave
you must be lonely
you must be longing to be saved
from the cold winds blowing

he must be crazy, must be mad
in this day and age no one minds for nothing
he must be wild
as for me, well, i must be insane
but i am lost
and i must travel back so many years
so many traps and dangers
that i cannot anticipate
but i just can't wait

you must be longing for the grave
you must be lonely
you must be longing to be saved
from the cold winds blowing
