40 Steps

Soft light, total silence

So tired, you take the table near the door

The table near the door

Sat back, under fire

I'm only as stable as I choose to show

If I choose to show

But where were you that night?

When I was

Well, I feel that this an explosion

That nobody else could ever really know

But I would follow you anywhere

You say you don't believe in science

You're always afraid of what you can't control

I would follow you anywhere

But where were you that night?

When I was

When I was calling for the answer

That you probably shouldn't know

Well, it feels like flames surrounding me here

When you were calling with your questions

When all I needed was to know

That it feels like flames surrounding me here

Unkempt and over-caffeinated

I walked the forty steps to the moon

(Back to the moon)

You say you don't believe in science

You're always ashamed of what you're willing to lose

But I would follow you anywhere

But where were you that night?

When I was

When I was calling for the answer

That you probably shouldn't know

When it feels like flames surrounding me here

When you were calling with your questions

When all I needed was to know

When it feels like flames surrounding me here

So this is it, so this is it

So this is the silence

So this is the silence we began

It's never quite, it's never quite over

It's never quite over in the silence

When I was calling for the answer

That you probably shouldn't know

Well, it feels like flames surrounding me here

When you were calling with your questions

When all I needed was to know

Well, it feels like flames surrounding me here
