lyrics
Once there was a man outside my door
he knocked three times while standing there
I sat there staring at his face
sitting in my very comfortable chair
comfortable chair
I wondered if he could see inside my room
I worried that he might see my face
though I had turned off all the lights
Sitting in my very comfortable place
The man looked like an older kind of man
He had on a shirt and tie
He had a package in his arms
My blankets were warm as fresh apple pie
The man stared at his watch from time to time
He looked to be about 55
he cupped his hands around his eyes
and attempted to see if I was inside
I sat as motionless as a stone
I held my breath and clenched my fists
he will not win this war this day
with my blankets like the warm embrace of a kiss
the next 5 seconds were eternity
but he just turned around and walked away
I clutched my pillow against my cheek
and refused to move for the rest of the day
he knocked three times while standing there
I sat there staring at his face
sitting in my very comfortable chair
comfortable chair
I wondered if he could see inside my room
I worried that he might see my face
though I had turned off all the lights
Sitting in my very comfortable place
The man looked like an older kind of man
He had on a shirt and tie
He had a package in his arms
My blankets were warm as fresh apple pie
The man stared at his watch from time to time
He looked to be about 55
he cupped his hands around his eyes
and attempted to see if I was inside
I sat as motionless as a stone
I held my breath and clenched my fists
he will not win this war this day
with my blankets like the warm embrace of a kiss
the next 5 seconds were eternity
but he just turned around and walked away
I clutched my pillow against my cheek
and refused to move for the rest of the day

With Darkness In My Eyes
by The Heavy HorsesYeah I made the album art, but also it is very very well done album, production is pure opulence. Justin Mahoney is a true gent.
