Snap of the fingers
Rings out across the plains
Hessians and hooligans
Are callin' out our names
I think we better run
I think we better hide
Take a deep breath, yeah
And climb inside
Push away the clouds
And let in the sky
Blow out the sun's pilot light
Open up their eyes
And welcome in the night
Crack a big grin, yeah
And smile real wide
Yeah, let them feel that they're warm
Don't let them know we pulled the alarm
Let 'em feel safe in our arms
Then we'll throw them out to the storm
The screamin' wind
Howled up the muddy road
My calloused skin my only defense against the cold
Hitting like the universal wheel grinding to a halt
I tremble with respect it is but one of my faults
I inhale the fear and feel the weight of another's eyes
Searching the dark forest through midnight's disguise
I focus my gaze and look into the dark eyes
Of a familiar face
The night playing tricks his silhouette like death
I stumbled my footing and lost my breath
I thought it was you with false bravado I spoke
A mighty challenge to get the words past my throat
Just you who nearly gave me a heart-attack
Just a busted mirror
Lying against a broken down shack
