Testo The House Under The Hill The Finches
Well, I'm the same kid I wasOut in the schoolyard
Hallowed my pockets with sticks
From the parking lot
Alone
Though I walked alone
I was sure there was somebody
There on my shoulder, quietly guiding me
Home
I counted to 1000, 2000, and even
Math game and nicknames for friends
That I rarely meet
But years roll along, along so graciously
And so gracefully we age into infinity
On
There is a house under a hill
With no windows, with no doors
And everything I've ever lost is there
Between the boards and beams
Oh, old friendships
Old virginity
A younger little ghost of me
Together, they are celebrating
All the time they've gained:
'Tonight, again, we celebrate
another tiny gain!'
Alone, I am nameless
And fearless and faceless
I see just my knees
And two hands held in front of me
Mine for this lifetime
So kindly I'll treat them
My blood pumps
My lungs bellow
So I will let them be
Ah...
