Cellar Dweller

I wrote this song for winter
And built a house from leaves
Winter blew this house down to make the way for spring
Spring sang up, but no-one listened

The waters broke the silence
The rivers burst their banks
In biblical proportions
Increased in increments
An eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind

The hills crumble
And the earth shatters like glass
And they'll gather and feed from the dying weeds
To the towns they'll run
From the burnt out sun
To the towns they'll run
From the burnt out sun
And an eye for an eye for an eye
Is by the by, by the by, by the by
Say goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
And the whole world goes blind

And the hills will crumble into ash
As the earth will shatter into splinters of glass
And the trees will torch to the ground as the skies collapse
And they'll gather and feed from the dying weeds
To the towns they'll run from the burnt out sun
To the towns they'll run from the burnt out sun
