turned the fan off and went for a walk
by the lights down on shield street
the birds in the trees open their wings
he goes home again
he dreams resistance, they talk commitment
things change over long distance
took the shirt off his back, the eyes from his head
and left him for dead
but I didn't know someone could be so lonesome
didn't know a heart could be tied up and held for ransom
until you take your shoes and go outside
stride over stride
walk to that tide
because the door is open wide
