Shadow Puppets The curtain falls the lights are hung A hollow hand applause is rung The light will catch your empty stare A hurricane has combed your hair Are you falling? Don't you need to live a while? Silence hides a hollow feeling The stranger is in silhouette Paranoia rests its head The staircase creeks you're not alone The silent answered telephone Is a warning Don't you need to live a while? Before you hide an inner screaming A crowd pleasing phrase A promise of something new Just buys alternating truth Fear will strike a cross within the booth It's the one time i needed you With shadow puppets coming home to roost His words crash like a china plate She paints a fish on roller skates A child's ear pressed against the door The shoes you kicked across the floor Is it boring you? Don't you need to live a while? Silence hides a hollow feeling The choices that confronted them Were simply Machiavellian The Speaker's hand is far too deft The curtain draws its final breath Is it dawning now? Don't you need to live a while? Before you hide your inner screaming With a crowd pleasing phrase A promise of something new Is buying a wide eyed ruse That only digs a shallow grave of truth It's the one time i needed you Are shadow puppets coming home to roost? The rabbit hole where lies begun The single bullet barrel spun A song born from a mandolin Between your thighs eternal sin Is it morning now? Don't you need to live a while? Silence hides a hollow feeling The horse that bolts an unlocked gate The fifty two the forty eight This wasn't what i voted for Democracy's become a whore Are you yawning? Don't you need to live a while? Your silence hides an inner screaming Premier Your mind's playing tricks on you Delusion is seeping through The less you win the more you've got to lose All reason is leaving you As shadow puppets make a home to roost
