Four Walls

Disclaimers: My piano is horribly out of tune. I don't have an audio recorder at home so it's a video with no picture. The vocal's too loud & the piano's too quiet. I know, no one cares about my disclaimers, but I feel the need to disclaim anyway.

Lyrics:

Only a moment there
Only a breath away from sleep
Only four walls to share
All of the secrets we will keep

Isn't it funny how a lifetime can be lived in just one day
Isn't it crazy how you know when you are somewhere you can't stay

Everything leads to this
Everything focused in one place
Listening through your skin
To ever expanding time & place

Isn't it funny how a whole lifetime can pass in just one place
Isn't it crazy how a hiding place can feel like an escape

Voices are the thunder and a blanket is the land
Your eyes are the sunlight and the weather is a single spinning fan
Water is water, want is want and love is love
One day is forever and forever isn't close to time enough

Only a moment now
Only four walls inside my head
Only a breath away
From all of the things we never said

Isn't it funny how a lifetime takes your memories of it all
Isn't it crazy how we lived so much in these four walls
