The Room

Astronauts, etc.


You led me to a room I'd heard about
Invited me to stay and nose around
I turned over a chest and there poured out
My will to leave

I didn't take a visitor for years
The terms of our engagement you made clear
Any other room was mine to share
But not this fantasy

They're hounding me to death
To say we're through
Won't let me take a breath
Until I do

They're hounding me to death
To say we're through

When others caught the scent
To where I'd been
Told me of the danger I was in
I'd nothing to refute
Their warnings with so gave them apathy

Running back to you
To those four walls
Safe inside the room behind the lock
Understood I hadn't left at all
And now I'm panicking

They're hounding me to death
To say we're through
Won't let me take a breath
Until I do

They're hounding me to death
To say we're through
