lyrics

you’ve been sleeping on the floor
I never saw you do that before.
endless digging through the layers
what evilness are you waiting for?

in this tiny house, what could it be?
is it person, place or thing or deity?
does your magic cat have any spells for me?

deep in the small hours I can hear her
digging and pacing underground
the signal’s stronger then much weaker
my head is filled with jagged sounds

walking through an empty lakebed
try to find what used to swim
how can you live your life so naked
when everyone is so buttoned in

I want to hear the evil too
in this tiny house we’ll disinter the truth
from the underground we’ll shake our bodies loose

deep in the small hours I can hear her
what is her name? I never ask
it’s only small things I can bring her
profundities evade my grasp

the birds are falling into sequence
the winds are stirring up the leaves
I hear the thumping of a presence
coming to life beneath the eaves
