Lyrics:
You showed me the way to my first naïve vantage
Trusting your treasures to a vessel that can't age
Carbon, blood and air to it that knows
I can keep this up with both your eyes closed
We never did see eye to eye. What you wanted:
A creaky old house I'd rather not have haunted
I know there's a place purely for me that's
Puzzles, polygons, escape and progress
The thing that's trapped behind the sockets
Ascending-riding warm air pockets
You mean nothing to me-wish you would leave me be
I mean nothing to you-you should set me free
We were all sat together on a train-trestles, tracks and tunnels
Briefly glancing up from our papers to survey the same crawling scene
We were all sat there together-private cabins, sleeping cars, whistle stops
No end of the line
