Doing Fine, Don"t Ask
So it was and so it'll be
Live in a house down by the sea
Watching the water turn
Sweep the steps and sit by the fire
Starry skies spell out liar
I feel desire
Sanctify my lies
Cut off every tie
Till I lie, alone
Sleeping at home
So it was and so it'll be
Spend my days
Cutting down trees
To get a better view
Well, I was going nowhere fast
When the last cut, by my hand
Opened my eyes
To what I'd shut out
Sanctify my lies
Cut off every tie
Till I lie, alone
Sleeping at home
Through the clearing
Stood an old man
A hood over his head
And a staff to hold him
His mouth, open
Pouring words of wisdom
In streams of crimson red
But I grew bored before he finished
I had already left
So it was and so it'll be
Spend my days living by the sea
Watching the world turn
Sanctify my lies
Cut off every tie
Till I lie, alone
Sleeping at home
Live in a house down by the sea
Watching the water turn
Sweep the steps and sit by the fire
Starry skies spell out liar
I feel desire
Sanctify my lies
Cut off every tie
Till I lie, alone
Sleeping at home
So it was and so it'll be
Spend my days
Cutting down trees
To get a better view
Well, I was going nowhere fast
When the last cut, by my hand
Opened my eyes
To what I'd shut out
Sanctify my lies
Cut off every tie
Till I lie, alone
Sleeping at home
Through the clearing
Stood an old man
A hood over his head
And a staff to hold him
His mouth, open
Pouring words of wisdom
In streams of crimson red
But I grew bored before he finished
I had already left
So it was and so it'll be
Spend my days living by the sea
Watching the world turn
Sanctify my lies
Cut off every tie
Till I lie, alone
Sleeping at home
