In or around this cold and broken sight
In the heat of events got one thing right
I walked through an invisible fire, I got burned
I remember and I still got the scar
Like the losened connection on your personal circuit
Don't need a hammer
Just to nail it down, nail it down
You know the thing with the sideways glance
In the heat of events there's a little chance
Little face with a painted grin
Comes the realization you must backwards walk in
If it tries to escape you through an open window
Step aside to miss the opening verse
Catch the full-on blast of what's a little worse
Within a pond down inside somewhere
There's a rustle of quiet and the salt of air
