lyrics

The attic and the door
The linen and the floor
Her lips of swollen shade
The joker at the grave
The attic and the door
The attic and the door

The silence and the bells
Doctrine of the cells
Immortal and obscure
And waiting here for you
The silence and the bells
The silence and the bells

Sleeping under
Not sleeping at all
Leaning over
Listening to the call

Depression is a funfair
Where autumn is a clown
And everybody’s putting
Everybody else down
Join the dance of death
Laugh against the tide
The driver and the ride
The driver and the ride

Sleeping under snow
Not sleeping at all
Leaning over your door
Listening to the call
