Awaken this harp hungry holy sight

Lost world finding another light

Open your warmth into perilous plight begging for the truth and a smile 

We waited for the third of songs we knew but barely heard ask and you too shall receive the word

Open at dawn the door beckons a 15 hour yawn good morning want some coffee ?

But the phone rings breaking the trance ringtones giving one last chance you stare at the screen but it's not there you are

We only knew what we were told with the radio playing low and old do you want a drink ?

'no' she says and softly smiles all the yesterday's play by in her secret guile she sees those things too

You found me by the stairs up or down empty chairs and back around you hold me like that time

When we had no where to go nothing to say and we said it low maybe we'll find a way for the hope in each other's arms the beguiling healing and soft without this world's charms your peace brings me mine and a cough

Open until night aching until that flashing light

Idiots cry for insight they are dancing with themselves tonight open with forsaken delight happy until dawn

Bask in an idiot's glow the idiots are gone with all they know and all the stolen lies 

heaven's just another sweet thought we gave all we had then found what he sought the line that follows where oh where 

All hale the yellow brick trail perspective meets an ever hued vale in this ochre burnt slumber of memory tale dont look at the man behind the wall the cowboys fought the poets dreamed the methodists danced and the ministers teemed but not a word was said sadly or unsure

Open until dawn
