"Someone In The Doorway" lyrics
"Someone In The Doorway"
Go find someone else
I am not ready to die
Go whisper softly
To someone else
Ask them
To lie down
You can tell 'em I'll be back in the minute
For now is not the time
I was there already I think, as a child
But I really can't remember why
Someone in the doorway
Someone in the light
Someone through the wall always
Someone left outside
Go find someone else
I am not ready to decide
Go whisper softly
To the man with no time
Ask him
To pick sides
You can tell 'em I'll be back in a minute
For now is not the time
Gone to find the root they all chewed on
For millennia
Do something better with my time
Someone in the doorway
Someone in the light
Someone in my hallway
Someone wearin' a new hat
Someone on the floor outside
They say you don't come back from that
Into the light of a bad dream
Into the laughter of a war
England a sedative on my tongue
Goodbye, goodbye that's all
Goodbye, goodbye that's all

Iron & Wine - "Flightless Bird, American Mouth" I was a quick-wet boy
Diving too deep for coins
All of your street light eyes
Wide on my plastic toys
Then when the cops closed the fair
I cut my long baby hair
Stole me a dog-eared map
And called...
Bombay Bicycle Club - "Luna" I will bathe myself
Then I'll wear you for the night
Colours fading, frayed at the sides
(You're changing in the light)
Oh why is your face so pale and white?
There's a lot of words to come out
Just...
Tash Sultana - "Notion" I hear the birds
When they're singing
I hear the sirens
When they're ringing
But I can't take my mind off of you
A thousand words, pouring out
The distance of over there
Is moving on and out
You said...
William Fitzsimmons - "Second Hand Smoke" White lines, white sky
Light through a sliding glass door, I
Woke up, washed off the second hand smoke
The second hand smoke
Time did what time does
Burned all the days and years and I
Woke up,...
Andrew Bird - "Bloodless" They're profiting from your worry
They're selling blanks down at the DMZ
They're banking on the sound and fury
Makes you wonder what it all's got to do with me
Bloodless for now
I'm keeping mine...
