Who holds the voodoo doll
sticking in the pins
who holds the knife up to my throat
when I'm sleeping
Oh my god, it can't be me
the monster 'neath the bed
everyone I know is further ahead
A storm in my teacup
and spider in my sink
a line so serpentine
through everything I think
Stand tall on quicksand
and sound your battle cry
everyone I know is further ahead
and I'm staying behind
Oh, Mona Lisa
with her grin frozen
frowns at last
when the sky turns black
And now the past that will be today
tomorrow will begin
you'll walk along the golden road
against the wind
and I will stay
and tend to all
forgotten bits of time
everyone I know is further ahead
and I'm staying behind
Oh slower than a Sunday sky
