Carlsbad
Carlsbad
I went into the hole with you to give silence a name and to know who we've both been talking to, to strike a match and light a flame.
But the darkness was complete and the weight of it was intense. Our tongues were tightly reigned--- none of this makes any sense.
Oh don't hide yourself away like a prisoner underground don't leave the light of day for this hiding place you've found. A subterranean river moves to hollow out an empty place. Can you feel it in you heart? I can see it in your face.
And the man in the uniform tells me about the weight of stone Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com and there's a child who's on vacation, but he's crying to go home,
And the wonder of a cavern is the time that it takes to carve a space of silent blackness, and the hollow sound it makes.
I have traveled south across the barren dirt, and I will open up my mouth, and I will say the words---
We will talk of love and friendship, we will talk of poetry, and we will talk about the pain that carves the holes in you and me.
()
I can feel it in my heart..., can you see it in my face?
