The house with no morning

[Intro] The moon came up before the sun... Or maybe... The sun forgot... [Verse 1] There was a house beneath the trees Where every window watched the breeze A woman smiled with silver eyes She never blinked... She never lied A radio played a backwards tune Someone whispered, "Leave before noon." [Pre-Chorus] Footsteps... One... Two... Three... But only two belonged to me. [Chorus] Tell me... Who fell into the river? Who left the crimson by the door? Who keeps calling through the silence When nobody lives here anymore? Was I dreaming? Was I running? Was I someone else that night? Every morning steals the answer... Every evening brings the light. --- [Verse 2] The flowers grew beneath the stairs They whispered names into the air A pocket watch began to cry Its hands were moving... Sideways... A little girl just laughed and said, "The dead don't sleep beneath the bed." [Bridge] I found a coat that looked like mine Its pockets full of broken time Inside... A key... A ring... A note... "I hope they never find the boat." The music stopped. The walls began to breathe. Someone laughed... It sounded... Like me. --- [Instrumental] (Fuzz guitar, Farfisa organ, surf solo soaked in spring reverb) --- [Final Chorus] Tell me... Who vanished by the willow? Who washed the footprints from the stone? Why's the mirror showing someone Standing where I've stood alone? Was I sleeping? Was I guilty? Was I only passing through? If tomorrow never finds me... Did the dream... Dream me... Too? --- [Outro] Morning came. The house was gone. Only the river... Remembered.
