Lyrics:
Part I: Great Expectations
I succumb once again
To a specter of pale white smoke
But tonight it's just a prelude
To a visit from the smiling face
I've known many who've seen it
Read about it in books
Heard about it in tunes
But tonight I get a visit from the smiling face
The air is warm but comforting
As the light of day begins to fade
My body aches but my will is strong
And yearning for the smiling face
We got the lights down low
And the music whispers by
A warm cup between my legs
And a cool conversation with friends
I feel my body relax
And melt into my chair
One last sip before I go
To meet the smiling face
I tremble and I sweat
And I'm feeling so alive
I'm alert and I'm excited
As things begin to slide
Part II: The Fanciful Excursion
Neon fish swim
Through clear liquid air
Dancing in front of my face
A twist and a turn
Then dart out of sight
Love how they swim in this place
Bright light from a box
Sent from the past
Telling a story that's so fine
Champagne after hours
A song and a dance
Mr. Kane's people smile so wide
Words craw under glass
And slither away
Friend in the picture waves good-bye
Old artists strut
In camera eyes
Bouncing and moving in strange ways
Ants crawl from a hole
Bored into his hand
Eye slit with razor bleeds away
A fat man of wax
Wakes from his sleep
Walks toward his window as he sighs
Blue men screaming
With foreign accents
All alone inside my mind
Words craw under glass
And slither away
Friend in the picture waves good-bye
(repeat 3 times)
Part III: Mourning Sunrise
Freezing
Covered in sweat
I am freezing
I'm falling down hard
Collapsed house of cards
barely
Breathing
Shallower Shallower
Breathing
The night peels away
And still I can't sleep
I'm so
Thirsty
Cup after cup
I'm so thirsty
I lie on a bed
So full of dread
As I finally rest
Part IV: There's No Place Like Home
