lyrics

There’s a lot of strange people in the house on the hill
Looking for nothing and standing still
Lost in a day dream, illusion a smoke screen

Photograph frames forgotten faces and names
All the places that they used to go
If they don’t know now they never will

There a little old lady who’s patiently waiting
She’s so far out no one can hear her call

Tracing back through time so slow
Like an old song on the radio
When it all made sense
When the pieces fit
When the future seemed so far away

Doctor Martinez is writing down notes
Making equations, repeating the quotes
Sometimes it’s easier looking out than in

When in walked a girl with tattoo of Spain
Angel and cross hanging down from a chain
She’d rather be anywhere, somewhere that is not here

The days all rolled into one
Between a mixture of morphine and the sleeping pills
Are they enemies or victim’s of fate
Do they all belong on the house on the hill?

There’s an old lady trapped in the circles of mind
Bright blue orchards that she’ll never find

Tracing back through time so slow
Like an old song on the radio
When it all made sense
When the pieces fit
When the future seemed so far away
