Couldn't figure it out
Couldn't see it coming

was innocent once again
figuring out the ins and outs

Let's just get down
to the heart of the matter

Exiles stance wore him out
The glass house peering out
Hot breath on the glass
(Total disconnect when she left)

Let's just get down to the heart
of the matter

Lives roll in on the tides
Roll back out when time dies
While butterflies fly
all around me

Let's just get down to
the heart of the matter

In constant conversation
this isolation
Silence and words incessant
Don't talk about what
can not be
that one adoring touch

Nothing comes inside to
heal that fragile spot
Time's passing grace
Time's moment of adoration
Windy touch

Let's just get down to the
heart of the matter

Darkness, life and death....
