lyrics

It pays to stay in the wooden horse.
Then comes the day you make a choice.
Now I'm the only one around
And when the walls come down,
What business is it of yours?
Hey, I don't miss you like I thought I would anymore.

The sea, the sea is calling me away
To the place I'll love until my grave,
Where fields are full of green and winds are tame.
But I have made my place
Amidst the terror and the waste
These days...

I'm the only one around
And when the walls come down,
What business is it of yours?
Hey, I don't miss you like I thought I would
And I won't tell a lie.
When you hide yourself in the hollow wood,
What business is it of mine?

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop
