Lyrics (unofficial)

[rev. Aug. 23, 2013]

Voices shift throughout song: Left [L], Center [C], Right [R], and all around [All]

[R] Curled in the warm winter sun
All alone number one
Gentle caramel melting dream
Things meant for something else
What else did you give to me?
What else did you give to me?

[L] There's someone outside, they're trying to get in
[R] There's someone outside, they're trying to get in
[L] The mirror denies it, I can't wake up this morning

[R] Curled in the cool summer moon  [C] Jungle meets the sorry ocean
[C] Loses himself in the chances that fortune has given him
[R] Seven hemisphere moon
[L] Loses himself in the chances that fortune has given him

[R] Someone outside, they're trying to get in
[L] Mirror denies it, I can't wake up this morning

[C & L - overlapping in a round]
Oh Mr. Silver please come in
We've been sitting here waiting for you
Such a long, long time

[R] None may dare to watch your grandeur, none may walk
[L] Moses by the seaside in 1974, listens to the music of the skyscraper carnivores

[All] There's someone outside, they're trying to get in

[L] Mirror denies it, I can't wake up this morning

[R] Moses by the seaside in 1974, he's listening to the music of the skyscraper carnivores
[L] Somewhere in this wilderness you wander like a river
Crossing the wheat fields and crying to the sorry ocean
You're crying to the sorry ocean

[R] Wrapped in the arms of the night

[R] Somewhere in this wilderness you wander like a river
Crossing the wheat fields and crying to the sorry ocean

[All] There's someone outside

[All] There's someone outside, they're trying to get in
