COutside (x32010@1)this house
            EmOr (022000@1)so I'm told

It's a real fear
For you and me
Burning clothing just to keep the winter warm
My fingers trace the gumline
Of a skeleton key
Not caring whether it could open up the door
The faces at the window
Are children in the womb
Black-eyed and still
But growing every day
You'll die on the outside
Or die in this room
Either way

Our infancy's receding
We're a heartbeat from the end
Did you hear the madmen lost the war?
I bet they could use a friend
Right now supper's getting cold
Right now God is growing old
Right now dialect is evolving
Outside this house
Or so I'm told

Am (x02210@1)               CWe're (x32010@1)stockpiling warheads
                    GWe're (320003@1)stuck in the past
                      DDeath (xx0232@1)is art Truth is beauty
                         AmAnd (x02210@1)the first shall be last

                            D (xx0232@1)                  AmWhen (x02210@1)the world is falling down crumbling like clay
We're hiding in caverns
Forgetting our names
We dissolve in our mythology
Like blood in the rain
You'll call me the lion
I'll call you the lamb
I am lost in all you are
You're alive for what I am
