lyrics

Most mistakes I make are private
Mired in silence
Biding time like landmines
Why would I put my foot down
When I don't know what's down there?

Kitchen tile and carpet
Four walls full of carpentry and portals
To my every need fulfilled
I hear the doorbell ring but

I don't wanna leave
I don't wanna leave
I don't wanna leave
I don't wanna leave

Careful dancing you might break the beat
You wouldn't want to be impeachable,
you pretty leaf, you peach, you wilting lily willing me
to weed the garden, gather pollen, grow instead of falling
into bed again to count the stars
It’s sunny out, but

I don't wanna leave
I don't wanna leave
I don't wanna leave

Body moving, boldly going to the living room
and holding court among the animals
that seem to know you even though you
are unknowable: a golem
gossamer and gold and polemic's
what makes you tick
no wonder that you get so sick
The fire-axe comes through the wall
Let's get you to the hospital
But you don't wanna leave
