lyrics

Count your rosaries and batten the hatch
We're off to the races and locking the latch
On the chance for a summary
A carnation in my pocket
I'm getting used to me
Still holding on to the ledge
For the strength to let go
There's no need to speak
That's how it goes

You can't change the future, you can't kill the past
That's yesterday's laundry up this morning's mast
It's the task of a balcony
To declare the start of a peace
And the end of a mutiny
Savor the view from the beach before we go home
There's no need to speak
Can't you see the truth glows?

I'll keep from the edge and I'll swing the rope
The highway of doubt is the highway of hope
The temptation of treachery
Look through the snow, don't you know
That this is nature's fee
It's time to admit to yourself
You're in bed with a stone
But there's no need to speak
You can reach me by phone

He came to the house with an old walking cane
Age 23 and not quite insane
It's a prop & necessity
To admit his feelings inside
And he felt he was born to be
Caught by the wind, whipped around
Like a leaf in the road
There's no need to speak
When everyone knows
