Lift the Shell Songtext

Lift the Shell Songtext
Here I am still waiting
Just a speck upon the screen
The others slowly fading
I have clearly come to see
That the world would come to me
Through the cold light on the screen
You saw it in a magazine
You read it in a book
You saw it on a TV show
But I never want to look
And no one′s ever home
When you ring the bell
And nothing's ever there
When you lift the shell
Endlessly unfolding
Can′t control me with my doom
I'm standing in the doorway
Have you come to pull me through?
And desires come in waves
And the face will always change
Burned up the buzzing hive
Crawled around the house
Took all the smoke inside
And I blew it out
And no one's ever home
When you ring the bell
And nothing′s ever there
When you lift the shell
Invent the parts
That live in the darkest place
Unless the tides
Remove the skies of grace
Just a speck upon the screen
The others slowly fading
I have clearly come to see
That the world would come to me
Through the cold light on the screen
You saw it in a magazine
You read it in a book
You saw it on a TV show
But I never want to look
And no one′s ever home
When you ring the bell
And nothing's ever there
When you lift the shell
Endlessly unfolding
Can′t control me with my doom
I'm standing in the doorway
Have you come to pull me through?
And desires come in waves
And the face will always change
Burned up the buzzing hive
Crawled around the house
Took all the smoke inside
And I blew it out
And no one's ever home
When you ring the bell
And nothing′s ever there
When you lift the shell
Invent the parts
That live in the darkest place
Unless the tides
Remove the skies of grace
