about

A song about living in your parents attic forever (or at least fearing you will).

lyrics

There's a door-shaped dent in the snow
Not sure when or how you left but you had to go
You took your guitar
You don't need food
Keep your expectations low
Or you're gonna lose

But you love souls
In your palms
Eyeing them up like they're today's psalms
You like the control you almost missed
Illuminate me on your deepest wish
Is it to be a child
Or feel homebound
You know you'll never escape that house
There's your address
Go on and take it
You know you've never really made it

Transparent stranger
You used to have a face
Thoughts behind it
Now you're a disgrace
But you haunt the place that they needed most
Sat in the attic, basically a ghost
Sit in their gut all that you like
It's not like they can put up a fight
Creep around haunting these halls
You can't tiptoe through their mind anymore

But you love souls
In your palms
Eyeing them up like they're today's psalms
You like the control you almost missed
Illuminate me on your deepest
