Worms

And when I opened up the lid I found the box was full of worms
And worms were always as a kid the things I felt sorry for most
As when you cut a worm in half, it still goes on without its head
I still go on without my heart it’s just I wish that we were
Open up to life and face the morning, (and say the things you never said.)
When I wish the sea would rise and drown me, (I get the things I left instead.)
She said: «I am not open to new ideas, and I don’t like to talk to children on
the phone
«And I’m well, over self-delusion, let me find a happy place to rest.»
And when I opened up the top I found the box was full of words
And words were always getting stuck they lose themselves behind the tears
And tears are always coming loose, I find I need to get a grip
A grip on something warm and living, like a human catalyst
Open up to life and face the morning, (and say the things you never said.)
When I wish the sea would rise and drown me, (I get the things I left instead.)
She said: «I am not open to new ideas, and I don’t like to talk to people on
the phone
«And I’m well, over self-confusion, let me find a happy place to rest.»
And when I opened up the lid I found the room was full of girls
And girls were always as a kid the things that scared us all the most
And mostly I was scared of her, the one who saw through my disguise
The one who saw that I was sore and wanted her to dry my eyes
Open up to life and face the morning, (and say the things you never said.)
And when I wish the sea would rise and drown me, (I get the things I left
instead.)
She said: «I am not open to new ideas, and I don’t like to talk to children on
the phone
«And I’m well, over self-delusion, let me find a happy place to rest.»
Oh-oh, let me find a happy place to rest
Oh-oh, let me find a happy place, I know that there’s a happy place
I know that there’s a kindly place called home
Called home
Called home
Called home
Called home
