Cave

[Verse 1]
I am sitting here in silence like a stone inside a pool of
Running water falling down a twisting aching straining stream
Inside a cave inside a mountain inside me inside of you

[Verse 2]
Here I am of icy glacial bits and pieces broken
Through the very center of my holiness
Like pennies thrown into some

[Verse 3]
Ancient fountain turning surfaces
To wishes in a stream
Inside a cave inside a mountain inside me inside of you

[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes I almost want to die when I say so many lies
Why do you make me want to be that way it’s
Almost obscene the way I don’t say what I mean even though
I try to but I can’t be anything but distant

[Chorus]
It’s all been wonderfully marvelous to feel
You're as near as I have ever come to being one with anyone for real
It’s all been wonderfully marvelous to touch
You're as close as I have ever come to wanting anybody way too much
Or not enough, too easily to be loved…too much or not enough

[Verse 4]
I am sitting naked in a public place inside my facing you
Is all I do to keep from telling you the truth is in my way
It’s still your way of killing me is to throw me in a stream
Inside a cave inside a mountain inside me inside of you

[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes I almost want to die when I say so many lies
Why do you make me want to be that way it’s
Almost obscene the way I don’t say what I mean even though
I try to but I can’t be anything but distant

[Chorus]
It’s all been wonderfully marvelous to feel
You're as near as I have ever come to being one with anyone for real
It’s all been wonderfully marvelous to touch
I'm as close as I have ever come to wanting anybody way too much
Or not enough, too easily to be loved…too much or not enough

… inside me inside of you...
