Shadowplay

Heaven sent today

I clicked on the fan for every phone call
So they wouldn't hear me say I love you
Save me from my room
Save me from this tomb
Same old story: skin and soil

I remember a girl kicking her feet
And I can feel it slipping through my fingers
Four separate songs from four different speakers

I kept quiet
So you'd think my heart was tough
This once, can you stay?
If I got lucky

I saw the pleasures of the world
Through a wire fence
Open the door and come in
Across from Puppy Hill

I keep on waiting
I leave it alone
I keep on waiting
I leave it alone
