Hey William Mathew Prior
guess what? I’m a painter for hire too
it’s ok
there’s worse things you could be
take it from me
I’ve tried everything
It ain’t what you do
It’s who you do it for
That’s what you are
It ain’t the easiest thing in the world
To paint two eyes and a mouth hole
Lost upon a common face
It’s ok
We won’t look away
chorus
we won’t look away
we won’t look away
till you know our faces
Till you can paint every one
From memory
It’s ok
Don’t look away…
chorus
don’t look away
don’t look away
can you see our ghosts?
would you paint our ghosts?
and William, when you’re a ghost
yeah, William, when you’re a ghost
you’ll be something to see

I am master of the sun
I am maker of the rain
but everywhere you go
There’s nothing but snow
There’s nothing to hold
Cuz everything is frozen
I am mountain side
I climb, I cannot help it
The higher you go
There’s nothing but snow…
There’s nothing to hold
Swami says / you gotta get / out of it / when you can
hiding

hiding
hiding
hiding
hiding

Caught off guard for a moment, for a moment, for a day
Or turn your head just for a moment, just for a moment, and it’s already too late
I bend down just to see how everyone’s getting on—man, everyone’s growin old
Turn into just for a moment, is that what you asked for?
Is this what it takes?
Some hearts are brave and unhappy, but not quite brave enough to be great
I’m afraid of a normal life; that’s the fate of a normal life
there's no such thing as a normal life
I bend down just to see how everyone’s getting on—ooooooh - everyone

Come on you saint, your faithful farness calls to you
Too few the years that take their toll in silver, not tears
Honey, I could let you in
I could be your truest friend,
that’s ok... I know the feeling
Honey, you can let yourself go
you can lay down in the snow
that’s ok, well, I know the feeling.
when you just gotta go home
