The Festival

I can see your raincoat
Bright in the fog
You dance and float
Like a flame in the dark
But the wind is up

The old house is empty
Closed up like the church
All your gold and crystal's
Cold and covered in dirt
But isn't that just how we were?

And which is worse?
All that we lost
Or all that we had when we did not yet
Even know what it was?

Are you listening in that kingdom above?
Rolling your eyes and clicking your tongue
And saying, "What have we done?
We had only just begun"

And which is worse?
All that we lost
Or that we had what we had when we did not yet
Even know what it was?

No turn of phrase could get it across
The only answer remain; it's never enough
It's never enough
It's never enough

Oh, what do you see?
Can you see inside my heart?
I hope you cannot
The hollow is deep
The canyon dark

No, just see us from above
Haircut in the summer
Toque in the fall
And you don't know nothing under at all
Just see me nod
As I walk around the festival
