Mewithoutyou - C-Minor lyrics

rate me

Our house wrapped in disrepair,<br />

A small mouse peeked out from a hole beneth the stairs<br />

Nearby to where my dad sat in his favorite chair,<br />

Thinking about the gov't and muttering a prayer<br />

So I scattered some oats in hopes she'd stay<br />

And sat still to stop from scaring her away-<br />

But she hurried on her little way<br />

And scurried around my mind<br />

Ever since,<br />

Every day<br />

<br />

Open wide my door, my door, my Lord<br />

(open wide my door)<br />

To whatever makes me love You more<br />

(open wide my door)<br />

While there's still light to run towards<br />

<br />

I'm water, you're the dry wood<br />

Equal parts misguided and misunderstood<br />

But all the neighborhood<br />

Watched a fire burn from where they stood<br />

As the smoke said<br />

"we're not half as bad as G-d is good"<br />

Still there's a whisper in my ear,<br />

The voice of loneliness and fear, so I say:<br />

<br />

"devil, disappear!<br />

I'm still (ehh... technically...) a virgin<br />

After 27 years-<br />

Which never bothered me before,<br />

What's maybe 50 more?"<br />

<br />

She came back for the oats<br />

But she brought along a "friend"<br />

(this never ends)<br />

The harder the rain,<br />

The lower the flowers in the garden bend<br />

(this never ends)<br />

I'd rather never talk again<br />

Than to continue to pretend<br />

That this never ends
