you found me sitting here
waiting for your light
patiently and graciously slow
i will never know
when the time is right
penetrate my wonder
illuminate everything
turn my eyes into dust
sorry about the ghosts
who escaped through my mouth
now my soul is empty
the walls are so cold
oh, but how you found me
full of eager hope
all my silent secrets
printed on empty reels
makes me a nervous artist
standing all alone
with everything on the wall
framed so nice and neat
i bit off my tongue
watched it crawl away
so now i sit and wait
desperate to sing again
weathering the storm
this is terrible weather
anything but this weather
please not this weather
i will dig my way down
till comfort hurts no more
stop and cross my heart
so i can hope to die
my heart is my treasure
touched by something pure
honest through and through
you're a beautiful being
