did you never call / i waited for your call / a way to shield the hated heat / i fell asleep / walls built up stone by stone / dirt of seven continents going ‘round & ‘round / maybe these maps & legends have been misunderstood / peel back the mountains / oceans fall & mountains drift / drink up the lake / fields divided one by one / peel back the sky / it’s a Man Ray kind of sky / burn bright through the night / paint me the places you have seen / a way to put myself to sleep / we can reach our destination / listen to the holler / the wise man built his words upon the rocks / but i’m not bound to follow suit / get me to the train on time / here / take this nickel / make a dime / some things are givens & others get away / when the world is a monster / hypnotized / suit-and-tied / listen to my walls within / & read just about every paragraph / to tell what i have hidden there / letters to me signed / ransom / greed / that’s my mistake / we never wrote the reasons that i need explained / take this penny & make it into a necklace when i leave / go build yourself another dream / try to put that in this heat / cannot wear that on your sleeve / the choice isn’t mine /
