Lyrics

It's like a rhythm of light in your home
Like a tear for the tired who wait
Like a vision of something not quite alone
Mistake upon many mistakes

It's like the rushing of feeling so right
And the song that will keep you awake
That the dream that you could not recall
An event that has always forsaken you

It's like the roof that's in need of repair
The garden of twilight undone
It's like the longing you felt in your greatest despair
And no one to wake you when day has come

Mr. Caretaker, Mrs. Soul Bend
Have you no need for a friend?

It's like clouds on a mountain of rain
Like the truth in a sentence or two
Like finality whispered so plain
The beauty of something that hurts you too

It's like the last harebrained scheme you imposed
The nothing that lasted so long
Like the martyr who could not compose in prose
The meltdown that burns up all that's wrong

Confusion in single line file
Breaks from the center and runs
Lasting impressions on lingering smiles
The beauty of what never comes
