Take down this ragged nest   You have built on unsteady ground   Bury what is left so safely   When no one is around   Years past sleeping in winter's place   Waiting deep underground   Rainfalls and so dry again   Is this the end      (chorus)   Keep from moving   You're paralyzed from trying to recover   From that horrible breath of chemicals   You are losing   Bullets from withing your mind   And breaking walls of cannibals   Looking to empower you, devour you      Hold brace here it comes   Like a wind from inside spinning around   Let go as you turn you will learn   How to live softly alone      Roses on a lover's dress   Will soothe you from within   Diving away following birds of prey   Like an old friend you are losing again   Gentle are days covering warm at dusk   The moon sings to stars that he lost   Look how awkwardly strange we are   In our plain ways      (chorus)      Take your time coming home   Such a clear night summer feels right   Hold break here it comes   Like a wind from inside spinning around   Let go as you turn you will learn   How to live softly alone   Each day passes by like a cloud in the sky   You can't be found   Moses has forgiven you for living quietly alone      Take your time coming home   Such a clear night summer feels right   I let it all break so I can see straight   I'm on the thin line   It's going to be the last time   Affection where I can't be   I wish the light would take me   Can I ask you why you gave in   Did it feel like you were caged in   I loved you till you ran out   Now it's time to fade out
