When you’re on your own
It is hard to know
What is brain
And what is stone
Cause it feels like I’ve always been
Where the sun keeps circling
Keep it down down now
Cause I think someone’s listening
Who left these handprints on the door
And I know I’ve
Seen that cloud before
Reminds me of
Absolutely nothing
That face in the window
A reflection
When you’re on your own
It is hard to know
What is brain
And what is snow
So you sit in your yard
And you watch the world a tumble
Through the void in your yard
And you watch the world a tumble
I don’t know
It’s the longest I’ve ever been
Held by fingers so bonny thin
Simmer down down now
And the sun just keeps circling
Won’t go down now
And I swear something’s listening
